Vegan Earth Day Lunch, Outreach and VegFest Houston Volunteer Orientation

Join the Vegan Society of PEACE for a

Vegan Earth Day Lunch

Sunday, April 22, 2012

Greetings!

April has been a busy month for Vegan Society of PEACE! We had a great turnout at our monthly potluck, where we showed clips from a new documentary as part of Vegan Earth Day awareness. Our volunteers also helped hundreds of children plant their own organic vegetable seedlings and handed out literature from our booth at Earth Day Houston.

Just last week, our volunteers gave literature and answered questions from our outreach booth at the Hewlett-Packard Sustainability Fair. We'll be doing more outreach at Houston area school campuses this coming week.

We are also having our Vegan Earth Day Lunch on official "Earth Day"! The event is at 2:00 PM on Sunday, April 22, 2012 at Loving Hut Vegan Restaurant in Houston. Loving Hut is the largest vegan restaurant chain in the world, whose motto is "Be Veg, Go Green, Save the Planet".

At the lunch, members of our VegFest Committee will host a short orientation for those who are interested in volunteering at VegFest Houston in June. Plus, there will be vegan "Earth Day" cupcakes from Sweet Stories while they last! Please join us on Earth Day if you can! RSVP is greatly appreciated.

For a compassionate and sustainable world,

The 2nd Annual VegFest Houston is Saturday, June 9, 2012!

Volunteers needed!

In June 2011, we launched the 1st Annual VegFest Houston. We are now just two months away from the 2nd Annual VegFest Houston!

The premier vegan community festival of Texas is produced entirely by our volunteers and we need your help. Since the size of our festival has expanded, we need even more volunteer assistance this year!

If you can volunteer for a shift at our festival on June 9, please let us know!

VegFest Houston volunteers will be invited to our pre-festival party and the VIP VegFest Houston after-party.

Be sure to attend our April

VegFest Houston Volunteer Orientation on Sunday, April 22, 2012, held in conjunction with our Vegan Earth Day Lunch.
