  • Social Concern
    Social Concern Unit 2 - Hinduism Teacher’s advisory notes on ‘Social Concern’. Food For Life ISKCON ‘Uniting the World through Pure Food’ “Food for Life projects span the globe and all have unique local aims and objectives. However, all Food for Life projects will adhere to the following principles as part of their overall strategy. • Welfare: To provide pure plant-based meals to the disadvantaged, malnourished and victims of disaster (natural or manmade), and wherever there is a need in the world. • Hospitality: To revive the ancient Vedic culture of spiritual hospitality, and to teach people by example, that there is spiritual equality among all beings. • Non-Violence: To reduce the amount of animals slaughtered for food, by giving as many people as possible the higher taste of “karma-free” plant-based meals. • Health: To teach about the value of plant-based meals for improving body and mind health. • Education: To teach the art and science of food yoga as an integral part of consciousness development.” (https://ffl.org/about/aims-and-objectives/ “With roots dating back to 1974, Food for Life Global is an international network of vegan food reliefs, health, wellness and education services. Our mission is to create peace and prosperity in the world through the liberal distribution of pure food prepared with loving intention.” (https://ffl.org/) “No one within ten miles of our temple should go hungry”. A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. (https://ffl.org/about/philosophy/) “Such selfless gestures of hospitality were common in the village life of ancient India. The religious householders of the Vedic times saw themselves as providers for all living beings, including the animals.

    VeganizeVeganize YOURYOUR DINING DINING HALL HALL © Steve Lee Studios Dear Student, Thanks for your interest in getting more vegan options offered in your dining halls. With the addition of plant-based entrées, you can spare thousands of animals a life of misery. As more college students stop eating animals, dining directors are working to accommodate students’ dietary choices. Some are even opening all- vegan dining halls and stations to meet the growing demand! So what kind of legacy do you want to leave on your campus? By dedicating a few hours to meetings, you can help make monumental changes for animals and expose students to vegan options that they otherwise would never have had the opportunity to try. peta2 is here to provide support and guidance throughout the process. In this guide, we’ve laid out the necessary steps to get your school an “A” on the peta2 Vegan Report Card. Feel free to contact our team, which helps students increase the number of vegan options on their campuses. E-mail us at [email protected]. Students across the country are working with peta2 and winning victories for animals. From gaining spots on dining advisory boards to working to create all- vegan dining halls—there’s no stopping peta2’s student supporters. The more praise and demand for plant-based foods that dining halls receive, the more vegan dining options will expand. So let’s get started! Sincerely, The peta2 Team Chick: © Dreamstime.com/Alptraum THE Five-StepPROCESS FOR MORE VEGAN OPTIONS STEP 1: INVESTIGATIVE PROCESS Survey the Options Already Available Find out which vegan options already exist and how prevalent they are in the various dining halls—the more thorough of an assessment you do, the more prepared and knowledgeable you’ll be when you meet with dining services.

  • Veganize Your Cafeteria
    501 Front St., Norfolk, VA 23510 757-622-peta2 • 757-628-0784 (fax) [email protected] • peta2.com Dear Student, Thanks for your interest in getting more vegan options offered in your school’s cafeteria. Having tasty vegan options is good for your health, the environment, and animals! Other students will probably thank you for increasing their food choices too! As if getting vegan options weren’t easy enough already, we’ve compiled this pack of resources to help you out. All you need to do is talk to your school’s dining-service officials or other school officials who make dining decisions and give them the following materials. You can set up a meeting or just stop by their office. Remember that their job is to satisfy students’ needs—so by politely speaking up, you’re helping them out, and they will welcome your concerns. What This Pack Contains and What You Should Do With It ‘Vegan-Friendly Cafeteria’ Petition Gather names to show to dining-service officials. Use a petition to show widespread student support for vegan options. Make copies of the petition, grab some clipboards and pens, recruit friends if possible, and spend some time around school between classes and around the cafeteria during lunch asking people to show their support by signing your petition. They aren’t committing to eating only vegan foods all the time (although that would be awesome); they’re just supporting healthy, humane choices—so it should be easy to get lots of support in a short period of time. After you have collected a bunch of signatures (including e-mails so that you can keep signers up to date about the success of the campaign as well as help the school advertise its new options), show them to your school’s dining officials.
