Dear John,

In just a few days, millions of people will be talking about turkeys as food, not as individuals. But you can pull up a seat at our table and support the Adopt a Turkey Project instead.

We began this tradition in 1986 to celebrate turkeys, not celebrate at their expense. Since then, tens of thousands of people have joined us — replacing the turkey on the table with a beautiful printed certificate honoring the life of a turkey. With a one-time $35 gift, you can also sponsor a rescued turkey and join this compassionate tradition.

Will you adopt a turkey today?

These symbolic adoptions support our rescued turkeys’ lives at Farm Sanctuary — from the costs of food to veterinary care. And because of this support, we’re able to advocate for turkeys still exploited in animal agriculture.

To show our appreciation, we’ll send you an adoption certificate featuring photos and facts about the turkey you’re helping — which also makes a great gift!

Thank you, in advance, for participating in a holiday tradition that is kind to all beings.

With gratitude,

Farm Sanctuary
