Dear John,

Today marks Farm Sanctuary's 35th anniversary!

Together, we’ve accomplished so much. We’re that much closer to a just and compassionate world—and it’s thanks to you, our caring community, that our work is even possible.

Over the past three and a half decades (!), we’ve led the fight for farm animals. We were the first organization dedicated to their rescue and refuge. And in that time, we’ve advocated on their behalf and educated millions about the cruelty and injustice of animal agriculture.

To celebrate our impact on the animals—and the world—take a scroll through 35 Rescue Animals Who Changed the World, published yesterday by BuzzFeed. It’s a beautiful list to see. Or, you can find more about our remarkable history here.

We’re so glad to have you with us on our journey!

Love,

Farm Sanctuary

P.S. While our anniversary provides us the chance to reflect upon how far we’ve come, we’re excited to share the foundation upon which the farmed animal protection movement will thrive for the next 35 years—and beyond.

And this is just the beginning! Please mark your calendars for our 35th-anniversary celebration on Saturday, September 25th. At this virtual event, we’ll be honoring the amazing road we’ve traveled, the victories and challenges, and The Power of Sanctuary to heal and inspire.
