UPCOMING EVENTS
_______________
Fur-free Friday!
It's 2009 and animals are still being killed for clothing. There are many other options to keep warm then using fur bearing animals for clothing. Whether it's a coat or fur trim it still all spells death for millions of animals. Now our best friends cannot escape the fur industry as dog and cat skins are used for coats and trim.
It's not elegant, beautiful or sophisticated to wear fur. It only says an animal was violently killed for his skin.
Let's educate consumers about the fur industry so they won't wear or buy fur. Help to end the suffering and violent deaths of minks, rabbits, opossums, beavers, raccoons, foxes, Karakul sheep, and many other kinds of animals.
MORE DETAILS:
We'll be at the Gallery , 11th and Market (in front of the Burlington Coat Factory)
Time: 1 pm to 3 pm
See you there!!!
Any questions? Call Marianne at 610-733-1248 or email rodeo.edu@gmail.com

Vegan Pledge
January 2010 Vegan Pledge
Dear Friend of Animals,
The Vegan Pledge is fast approaching. The details are now set, and you can now reserve your place in the free program by emailing leila@foaphilly.org and telling us that you plan to participate.
Friends of Animals will provide vegan counseling in the form of vegan mentors, cooking classes, free vegan lunch, nutritional and health guidance, and even shopping classes. The free program will also include medical screening tests (like cholesterol and blood pressure) and a vegan care package for each participant. Meetings will be held on five Saturdays starting January 16, 2010 in a meeting room at the First Presbyterian Church of Philadelphia (21st and Walnut, using the 21st street side entrance). Meetings will start at 11:30 A.M and will generally end around 2:00. We are understanding of people's schedules, and if you let us know that you will need to arrive late or leave early, we will accommodate your schedule and will do our best to make sure that you still get the most out of our program.
Veganism is the most direct form of action you can take to help animals. There has never been a better time or a better way to try the vegan lifestyle, so please respond to reserve a spot in the 2010 Vegan Pledge!
You are welcome to share this information with any interested friends.

This is just a reminder to everyone to purchase your tickets for VDP before Nov. 22nd. You can purchase your tickets at vegandrinksphilly.com. Keep in mind this is actually a ticket-less event. When you purchase your "ticket," it puts your name on the list for when you arrive. The price of the tickets includes tax and gratuity. After the 22nd, if there are any spaces left, I will notify everyone and if you're still interested in coming, you can pay cash at the door.
This is bound to be an exciting event! C'mon, it's apparently THE BIGGEST PARTY NIGHT OF THE YEAR! Or so I hear. There's a karaoke machine setup too! If you were at the 4th of July event, you remember how much fun that was ;)
Hope to see everyone there and be sure to stay tuned concerning December's VDP!

Hi all!
Sorry to do this to you, but I needed to increase the price of the admission for the Vegan Drinks Philly pre-Thanksgiving celebration to $16.50 per person. Unfortunately, there was some confusion concerning tax and gratuity when I originally set this up. It's still a great deal! Please note that the price of $16.50 includes tax and gratuity.
As stated previously, wine and beer will be provided for a donation per drink and the funds raised will benefit Chenoa Manor. In case you missed it, there was a lovely article about Chenoa Manor in the Philadelphia Inquirer yesterday. The donations are already coming in as a result, but don't forget that we STILL need to raise nearly $200,000 to renovate the 200-year-old barn for the animals and children. Please donate if you can. Little by little, dollar by dollar, we will reach our goal and make Chenoa Manor even more amazing than it already is!!
Please consider coming out for Vegan Drinks Philly at New Harmony for great food and to meet like-minded individuals! Don't forget to order your tickets before the 22nd! Don't hesitate to contact me with any questions or concerns.

Hi all!
I hope this message is finding everyone well as we prepare ourselves for the annual carcass feasts. I have good and bad news for Vegan Drinks Philly. I'll give you the bad news first.
Unfortunately, Horizons will be unable to host Vegan Drinks Philly until further notice. That's the bad news, but there's also good news that comes out of it! Vegan Drinks Philly is going on its 10 month strong and will now be held at the ALL VEGAN restaurant, New Harmony!!
New Harmony is BYOB, so we have worked out a creative idea to not only provide alcohol, but also the raise money for our favorite sanctuary, Chenoa Manor! The new structure of Vegan Drinks (at least for this month anyway) is going to be that you need to purchase a ticket in advance for $15. That ticket will cover the cost for an all-you-can-eat vegan Chinese buffet.
As far as the alcohol goes, there's a way we can use it to help us raise much needed funds for Chenoa Manor. Vegan Drinks Philly will provide wine and beer that will be available for a donation per drink. The donation will be no more than an average drink price and the money collected will be used to cover the cost of the alcohol and the rest will be donated to Chenoa Manor. Individuals may also bring their own alcohol if they wish.
I know there are A LOT of changes from our regular routine, but I think this will ultimately make us more effective going forward. We can try it out for this month and see how it works. We only have space for roughly 40 people, so I suggest you purchase your tickets now. I know it's annoying that it will cost money now, but if you ever ordered food at Horizons, it's not really costing much more. Plus, the drink donations all help Chenoa Manor in their amazing efforts!
There are a couple of other exciting enhancements I'd like to make to our monthly events, but I'm keeping them a secret for the time being. You will be filled in soon enough ;)
Please help spread the word with this one, because attendance wasn't so great at our last event. Remember, Vegan Drinks Philly is for all vegans, vegetarians, and veg-curious!! Bring friends!
Thanks to everyone for continuing to support Vegan Drinks Philly and helping to create a strong network of individuals that are getting connected to create massive change for animals starting right here in Philadelphia!!!
Head on over to www.vegandrinksphilly.com to purchase your tickets today. You have until Sunday the 22nd to do so.
See you all there!
