Easy Fall Outreach Ideas

Whether you are going back to school, have kids who are going back to school, or are just falling back into old routines, autumn is often a busy time for most people. You might have a lot on your plate, but don’t forget that the animals who end up on plates, on fur farms, or on display in circuses and zoos need you to fit them into your busy schedule. Here are some things that you can do to help animals this fall:

Write Animal Wrongs

Reach millions of people by writing letters to the editor to your local newspapers about important fall animal issues. Many county fairs with petting zoos take place in the fall, for example, so take this opportunity to let your community know about the dangers to humans and animals involved in petting zoos.

Demonstrate Your Compassion 

Fall is the perfect time for tabling and leaving a trail of leaflets at seasonal events:

Put Your Passion Into Projects

Have some extra time this fall? Then reach and teach people by kicking off a campaign:
  • Veganize your cafeteria. Start a local campaign to have your school or all schools in your district include a vegan choice on each daily menu.
  • Find out about the schools in your area that include animal dissection in their science programs, and start a campaign for an alternative for students who do not want to participate.
  • Ask your local library if you can set up an animal rights-themed display. A display with a collage or poster, some leaflets, and appropriate books from the library is sure to get attention and turn heads. Contact us for materials and advice.
