Walk For Farm Animals
9:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.
More than 70 attendees walked and raised awareness and over $2,500 for Farm Sanctuary during the 2011 walk. Attendance more than doubled from 2010, and we intend to double in size again in 2012. In addition to bringing farm animal welfare to the forefront of humane issues in the Lowcountry, this event continues to bring people together. The 2012 event will involve more collaboration with other local organizations, particularly The Sprout, which donated food and has pledged to continue supporting Farm Sanctuary, and Jivamukti Yoga, which contributed the largest team of walkers and was integral in promoting the event.
