The Top Vegan Charities That Need Your Support in 2021

We’re all guilty of forgetting that veganism is a movement. We all get sidetracked by the release of popular vegan foods, the focus on vegan fitness, and vegan recipes from time to time. However, there are many vegan charities working hard day and night to fight for the rights of animals worldwide, helping to dismantle factory farming, end animal testing, stop animal entertainment, and steering humans away from meat and dairy.

Some of these vegan charities also help to improve the lives of people, delivering food to some of the most vulnerable people in the world, assisting communities to grow plant foods, teaching people to sustainably farm and to respect all creatures in the process.

Veganism is a compassionate movement centered around making the world a better place for all. Here are the top 8 vegan charities in the world that are doing incredible service to humans and animals and who need your support now.

Fundación El Hogar Animal Sanctuary

Buenos días:
Me ha sorprendido no encontrar entre las organizaciones veganas que necesitan ayuda, a la Fundación El Hogar Animal Sanctuary.
Se trata de un santuario de animales, situado en L’Esquirol, provincia de Barcelona, España, que es vegano y cuida principalmente, animales de granja rescatados de la explotación. Estamos pasando unos momentos muy duros debido a que las donaciones debido a la crisis, han bajado y necesitamos urgentemente vallar el santuario ya que entran cazadores con sus perros y sus armas, a parte de otras personas, que asustan y ponen en peligro la vida de los animales rescatados.
https://fundacionelhogar.org/.
Hemos iniciado una campaña para recaudar dinero para la valla, pero va muy lenta, y todas las administraciones nos han dicho que no pueden hacer nada, si no vallamos.
