Happy New Year! We’re so excited for 2022, but we also want to reflect on 2021. It was a year of gratitude.

In 2021, we rescued over 100 farm animals in need. We reopened our Sanctuaries to the public, collaborated on rescues with other organizations, and provided peace and refuge for nearly 900 rescued animals. We also came together to celebrate 35 years of Farm Sanctuary!

And the power of this work reverberates beyond the physical borders of our two Sanctuaries. Together, we:

• Changed hearts and minds by sharing rescued farm animals’ stories—their victories, rescues, and journeys had 184M+ views on social media!
• Improved countless lives through advocacy and public awareness campaigns—including our endorsement of Sen. Booker and Rep. Khanna’s Farm System Reform Act.
• Reached 33,800 students across the U.S. through our humane education presentations.

In the video below, you’ll see just a few highlights from 2021—and why we’re hopeful that 2022 will bring us even closer to the world we want to see:

Thank you for connecting with Farm Sanctuary this year. For knowing these animals and sharing their joys and their sorrows. And thank you for giving us hope for a kinder world for all.

Wishing you a safe, happy, and healthy 2022!

Love,
Farm Sanctuary
