Have a Heart: Say No to Foie Gras

Farm Sanctuary’s Advocacy Campaign Team is teaming up with the 1st Annual Florida Week for the Animals, which is presented by Animal World USA. Florida Week for the Animals will be held on February 7-15, during which time there will be several events throughout the Sunshine State which will raise awareness far and wide about animal issues.          

This Valentine’s Day, join Florida activists as they take part in our international efforts to educate restaurants and the general public about foie gras cruelty, asking them to make the compassionate decision to Say No to Foie Gras. We will be taking part in peaceful leafletings, tablings, demonstrations, and social events throughout the state as an effort to educate others about the horrors involved in the force-feeding of ducks and geese. Farm Sanctuary will be holding Valentine’s Day outreach events centering around foie gras cruelty throughout the United States, Canada and South Africa.

Help us spread the word to Have a Heart and Say No to Foie Gras!
