Walk for Farm Animals

Date of event:4th Sep 2010
Location of the event:Cities across North America
Event starts at:September 2010

The Walk for Farm Animals is an annual event that helps spread the word about the treatment of animals on factory farms and raises vital funds for Farm Sanctuary's rescue, education and advocacy work.

The Walks are an important part of Farm Sanctuary’s history and outreach and fundraising efforts. They are also a great way for supporters to help send a positive message of compassion and hope for farm animals.

Each year, the Walks are more successful, attracting more participants and raising more money to help abused animals. They are positive events that bring together people who care about what factory farming is doing to animals, people and the environment.

This year Farm Sanctuar is happy to welcome their first-ever Walk spokesperson, celebrity trainer Bob Harper, from the TV show The Biggest Loser. Bob is just as passionate about farm animal protection as he is about health and fitness, so farm animal advocates are thrilled that he’s joined us to speak out for animals.

Walks occur across the U.S. and in Canada in September and October. They are organized and run by volunteers, and it is their incredible commitment and talent that makes these events so successful. All of your generous contributions go straight to Farm Sanctuary.  

If you are interested in participating in a Farm Sanctuary Walk for Farm Animals, please check out the Find a 2010 Walk page to see if there is an event in your community. Once they open the 2010 Walks, you can register either online, or through mail by contacting your local Walk coordinator.

Happy walking!
