For the Greater Good

"Trying to minimize the amount of cruelty you participate in, I think, is healthy for anybody to do. And it doesn’t mean you have to be perfect. But I think making the effort makes a difference. Making different choices, even a couple of days a week, makes a difference."
- Lisa Edelstein

A list of websites that help support/raise awareness about good causes. Great places to find gifts for family, friends, or yourself, and give twice. If you have any other sites or stores you know of, I'd be more than happy to add it on. :) )

I'm not sure if you wanna add these, but these are the charities I work with, just so you know--

North Shore Animal League America Biggest no-kill shelter in the country

Médecins Sans Frontières

Wildlife Conservation Society

Animal Planet's R.O.A.R (Reach Out, Act, Respond)

Heifer International

Vegan Action

Wildlife Aid UK (this one is closest to my heart, in fact, and on the brink of collapse. there's a campaign to try and save it, so I'd really REALLY appreciate it if you could spread the link around)

I hope that's not being rude or anything. It's a great list though!

Not at all! I'm adding all the sites right now.

Do you by any chance have a link to the campaign site, or ways to help Wildlife Aid?

The campaign is on the site; they're asking for donation urgently. My whole paycheck went there this and last month. If it closes I'll be torn.

Thank you so much for the link puttage. It's an amazing list. I have to make one too, or maybe I'll just make a post pointing people here?

I would be totally cool with you linking people here. I mean, if you want to make your own list, obviously go for it. But this could be like our little joint-venture list if you want?

Hello! This is a great list, and I'm so delighted to learn that it's something that LE supports.

Perhaps you could add my favourite organisation/ charity, Compassion in World Farming? The name speaks for itself, and they're not nuts. This is something we piglets naturally feel strongly about :)

They're here.

These are great! I've visited many of them before and just now visited a bunch more. I've always like been like this so it's great to see lots of people who'd support them, and knowing that LE supports such great causes it's like heart-melting. <3 Like ahhh♥ :] Mind if I link to these too?

They are really wonderful causes. I'm glad you like the list! If you have anything to add, let me know, I'd be happy to put it on the list.

Lisa is a beautiful woman, no doubt about that. :)
