What we’re about
Even if you are not vegan yet, our main goal is to meet other kind, compassionate, and healthy seeking people monthly at various times of the the month for potlucks and/or presentations, speakers, educational DVDs. We also have monthly dine outs, fitness excursions, book clubs and any other ideas you have regarding health, animal welfare and earth sustainablilty. When we have potlucks or snacks, please bring a plant based or vegan dish or snack (no dairy or eggs) to our potlucks so that everyone can eat all the dishes. We do not want to include eggs, dairy, or meat as we do not want to contribute to the suffering or early death of egg laying chickens or dairy cows.
THIS meetup group is for EVERYONE interested in becoming compassionate and healthy too. This is for YOU and we make this successful by joining here together to make our events successful!

Join Me April 23: Advocacy That Builds, Not Breaks
Hello Friends,
If you’ve ever felt discouraged trying to talk about veganism with someone you care about, I want you to know—you’re not alone.
Conversations can quickly become tense or misunderstood, even when you come with compassion, facts, and clarity. You speak from the heart, but still feel dismissed or unheard—and that can be deeply frustrating, even painful.
We’ve all been there. But the truth is, you don’t have to carry that weight alone.
That’s why I’m inviting you to join me for:
It’s Not Your Fault – Building Bridges: Effective Relationship-Based Advocacy for Vegans.
In our time together, I’ll be sharing practical tools and strategies to help you engage in meaningful conversations about veganism—especially with the people closest to you.
We’ll explore how to approach others with empathy, how to really listen and understand their concerns, and how to speak from your own experience in a way that’s open, honest, and non-confrontational.
Event Details
Date: April 23, 2025
Time: 12 PM EST / 9 AM PST / 9.30 PM IST
Location: Live on Zoom
Cost: Free Event
You’ll learn how to gently challenge misconceptions, plant seeds of curiosity, and connect through shared values—without ever having to compromise your truth.
Because effective advocacy isn’t about debating. It’s about relating.
If this speaks to you—if you’ve been longing for more peace, more clarity, and more impact in your advocacy—I hope you’ll join me.
