“The Watkins Glen sanctuary is a beautiful natural landscape where rescued farm animals are provided with deep compassion and support. Seeing this powerful healing and care in person has expanded my own compassion, not only for farm animals but for all living beings in the world. I am truly grateful to Farm Sanctuary for opening my heart, helping me grow as a human being, and becoming more compassionate towards fellow humans as well as all living plants and animals. Creating a Charitable Gift Annuity is the perfect way for me to express my gratitude to Farm Sanctuary.” — Paul Barringer, Farm Sanctuary volunteer and supporter
