Gentle Thanksgiving materials and WFAD wrap up report

[Guest guest]

Dear Friends,

 

Gentle Thanksgiving is an opportunity to encourage friends, family and

neighbors to adopt compassionate alternatives to cruel turkey dinners.

Join FARM in publicizing the benefits of a vegan diet this holiday

season by getting active in your community.

 

Here are just a few ways you can participate:

 

- Request free handouts for distribution. Each one offers a free Veg

Starter Guide and weekly recipes. Give them to family and friends, and

distribute them at veg-friendly locations around your community. Request

some now at www.gentlethanksgiving.org/eventReg.php

 

- Host a private Gentle Thanksgiving dinner. Invite family, friends, and

acquaintances to join you - it's a friendly way to introduce the great

taste and many benefits of a cruelty-free diet to those around you.

 

- Coordinate a public Gentle Thanksgiving meal. A great form of

outreach, public vegan dinners can be held at local churches, community

centers, veg-friendly restaurants, or any other appropriate location.

Consider making it a potluck, hiring a caterer, or asking volunteers to

donate vegan food for the occasion.

 

Visit http://www.GentleThanksgiving.org for more ideas on how to get

active.

 

Thanks for helping us spread the message of compassion!

 

Sincerely,

 

Michael Weber

Outreach Coordinator
