Help us change the story this World Farm Animals Day
Dear John,
On October 2, we’ll join together in honor of World Farm Animals Day, shedding light on billions of animals suffering in our food system. With your help, we can raise $50,000 through our Giving Day Challenge to create a more compassionate world for animals like Sammy sheep.
Not long ago, Sammy was set to be one of the 10 billion farm animals who are exploited and slaughtered in the U.S. every year. Most never get to feel sunlight on their face or take a breath of fresh air. They are denied basic humane consideration.
But because of compassionate supporters like you, Sammy’s story didn’t end there. Today, Sammy lives safely and freely at sanctuary—a living reminder of the change your generosity makes possible.
By giving before October 2, you’ll help build early momentum toward our goal and ensure we can change even more lives.
When you join as a member, you will receive Farm Sanctuary’s member magazine, early opportunities to book accommodations at our New York sanctuary, access to events, and additional benefits.
At Farm Sanctuary, we don’t see numbers when we look at farm animals. We see hearts. We see lives. We see Sammy, and the billions of others who deserve to be seen, protected, and loved.
We know you see them too, John.
Thanks to your support, our team traveled hundreds of miles to rescue “aggressive” Sammy from a sheep dairy farm where they were set for slaughter. What we found was a scared but affectionate sheep who only wanted love. Today, they have it—and they always will.
As we approach World Farm Animals Day, I hope you will help us amplify the stories of countless forgotten farm animals who desperately want to live, just like Sammy.
P.S. Farm Sanctuary is kicking off our ninth annual Giving Day Challenge to celebrate World Farm Animals Day—and we want you to be a part of it! Please make a special gift today!
