The Partnership: Compassionate Action for Animals and Giving What We Can

Compassionate Action for Animals (CAA) is partnering with the local chapter of Giving What We Can to host this mixer. Giving What We Can encourages people to donate sustainable portions of their incomes to alleviate suffering – including animal suffering. Compassionate Action for Animals facilitates transitions to plant-based eating, cultivates a culture of respect for animals, and supports pro-animal legislation in Minnesota.

Mixer Schedule

The schedule is as follows: 

  • 2-2:30: Potluck 
  • 2:30-3:15: Presentations and games from the host organizations 
  • 3:15-4:00 Social time & yard games 

Potluck Details

There will be vegan “pigs in a blanket” and pasta salad for lunch. Please bring a side or dessert to share. Keep it vegan – no meat, dairy, eggs, or other animal products like honey. It’s easy to grab chips & guac, pita & hummus, or Oreos from the store, or to google “vegan [dish name] recipes”. You can also check out our recipe archive and our Vegan Recipe Club archive.

Donating Other People’s Money

During the presentation and game, you’ll have a chance to donate other people’s money to an agreed-upon charity – what a steal! Each participant gets $15 to donate!
