We distributed 3,421 leaflets, sparing 1,700+ animals from a lifetime of suffering!
π₯ππ· Thank you to the five phenomenal leafleters who joined us for our SLU Leafleting Field Trip with Vegan Outreach!
Together, we distributed over 3,400 leaflets, spared an estimated 1,700-2,400 animals from a lifetime of suffering, and started the semester strong.
Research conducted by Vegan Outreach, Mercy For Animals, and The Humane League, for example, has consistently found that roughly one animal is spared from a lifetime of suffering for every two booklets distributed. Distributing leaflets at colleges and universities can be especially impactful.
In a single minute during a class change, you can easily distribute several leaflets, sparing multiple animals from horrors, injustices, and atrocities so profound, our language can hardly accommodate their excesses. Leafleting is therefore one of the simplest, most effective actions you can take to reduce animal suffering en route to building a just, sustainable world.
Itβs astonishing that just five people could meaningfully impact this many lives in just four hours. Imagine what we could accomplish if the estimated 168,000 vegetarians and vegans in the St. Louis region consistently took action for animals beyond simply not eating them.
There is massive, pent-up potential for transformative change in our community. Be one more changemaker unlocking that potential: make a commitment today to attend our next outreach event!
