Hi, this is Meg's little sister, Ruth, writing. Meg was out-and-about town yesterday with her husband Tom celebrating their silver anniversary. (I cannot believe it's already been 25 years!!) So ... I thought I'd jump on this opportunity to tell you about how I recently discovered an organization that deeply touched our hearts. Let me backtrack for just a sec...
I attended the Kushi Institute's Summer Conference this month with Meg, and one of the sponsors of the conference was Veg News. I took home a free copy of the magazine. When I had a chance to flip through the pages, my eye was drawn to an advertisement with a close-up photo of a pig (it was basically his hairy snout, one very deep-set eye, and a teeny weeny ear); it was titled, Pigs Peace Sanctuary, and BOY, this pig really called out to me!
I went to the Web site and read the first animal story (listed by each animal's name). After reading the first, I was hooked and read all the stories (plus every word on the site). Pigs Peace Sanctuary is a "safe haven of love" for pigs and their friends in Washington state. It's a non-profit organization "providing a safe home for unwanted, abused or neglected animals in need and is committed to spreading
the message of compassion and respect for all animals."
The site makes me want to move to a farm where I could adopt one of my very own pigs and cook it spaghetti with tomato sauce and peanut butter sandwiches, and spoil it rotten ... or just help in some way! Would you please take a few minutes to click on the site and see what I'm talking about?
Many thanks! Ruth (See new sidebar badge on right to donate!)
