November Seattle Social with THL

Looking to connect with other volunteers or to learn more about animal advocacy? All are welcome, from experienced group members to those curious about our mission ('vegan' is not a requirement)! The venue offers non-alcoholic and alcoholic options. We'll be on the outside patio if space allows. Hope to see you there!

About The Humane League

You may have noticed that in the past few years, cage-free eggs have started to become significantly more prevalent in stores. THL started campaigning in 2015, and since then cage-free eggs have gone from about 5% to about 30% today. That’s over 100 million hens per year that will not spend their lives confined to cages, about 1/3 of the US population.

But how? A few hundred THL volunteers have emailed, phoned and used social media to obtain commitments from US companies to migrate to cage free eggs. All it takes to be an “active volunteer” is to take 2 digital actions in the past 3 months. So would you say maybe 60 minutes over 3 months of work on average, or 20 minutes per month?
In a given month, the total number of active THL volunteers is in the 100-200 range, or 4 people per state on average. At that size, anyone who constantly shows up will make about a 1% difference nationally, or about 25% per state on average.

This is Seattle Chapter of The Humane League. The Humane League advocates for farmed animal welfare - most farmed animals are kept in terrible conditions and suffer horribly. We host monthly meetups to take digital actions and have more events in the works.
