Saving animals from cruel confinement, mutilation and death in factory farms and slaughterhouses. Help the most animals per donation (1,000,000 perish every hour)! Volunteer networks in every state and overseas.
Why do we exist?
FARM’s ambitious mission is to enhance public health, environmental quality, and animal welfare by getting consumers to replace meat and fat in their diet with vegetables, grains, and fruits. Anyone who cares about his/her family’s health, the health of our rivers and forests, and the treatment of farm animals should support our national educational campaigns. Although other organizations address some of these issues, none address all of them in such an efficient manner.
What have you accomplished?
Several important dietary trends have occurred during the past two decades of our activity:
- Over 30 million Americans have explored meatless eating
- Growing numbers of youngsters are going vegetarian
- Mainstream food processors and retailers are marketing meatless meals
- Major health advocacy organizations are counseling plant-based diets
- The USDA and American Dietetic Association have endorsed vegetarianism
Every day, the mail and the telephone bring us inquiries about meatless eating or expressions of thanks for changing people’s lives.
