About Me

.. Vote for The Little Cats' Rescue in FL! (Make sure to add the ' in cats' or it won't come up! ..Most of my time over the past few years has been dedicated to helping animals. Visit WegmansCruelty.com to see what I've been a part of.I started an activist group in Florida and helped launch VegTampaBay.comI work part-time so that I can put more effort into helping animals. I organize a lot of activities to help animals raised for food such as leafleting, setting up information tables, and reaching out to restaurants to add cruelty-free items to their menus. I am also on the Board of Directors of Florida Voices for Animals and am the volunteer coordinator for The Little Cats Rescue.I spend the majority of my time doing college outreach . All animal rights activists should be doing this as it is the most effective way to spend our time ...Also, check out the film "Meet Your Meat" and info about factory farming to see why I do what I do.
