Help students in the Twin Cities learn about animal protection and veganism! Provide vegan food samples at Century College in White Bear Lake on Friday, April 24th from 8:50am-9:40am. We’ll be providing simple, vegan food samples for about 30 students during a classroom presentation and we need your help.
We are honored to be invited into classrooms at dozens of local schools. Join us to check out the variety of ways we introduce animal protection topics in an average classroom. Presentations deliver a lot of information in a well-established learning environment and vegan food samples help to make it an exceptionally persuasive experience, but without a volunteer we can’t provide these samples.
For more information or if you would like to volunteer, email Shannon Kimball at shannon@bridgesofrespect.org
