Many animal shelters and rescue groups have come to recognize the inconsistency of rescuing some animals while eating others. They've made a commitment to serve only vegetarian meals at their fund raising events or other functions. If your favorite animal shelter doesn't have such a policy, you can get materials to encourage them to adopt one from such campaigns as Compassion over Killing's Campaign Humane or and Animal Place's Food For Thought campaign.
If you're looking for an animal shelter or rescue group to donate to and would prefer one that only serves vegetarian meals, COK has a list of organizations that participate in Campaign humane.
The Animal-Friendly Giving Guide will include animal shelters and rescue groups that have pledged to go veg, as well as many other worthy organizations. Please sign up for our e-newsletter to receive updates on the AFGG campaign.
