About us
San Francisco Vegan Society (SFVS) welcomes people wherever they are on the path to an all-plant, vegan diet and lifestyle. We promote the adoption of a vegan lifestyle for ethical, healthy and sustainable living, and offer a community for people to meet, learn, exchange ideas and interact with others interested in compassionate living for a better world. Together we can make this movement grow and encourage a way of life that is better for your health, better for the well-being of animals, better for the environment, and better for humanity.

COMMUNITY NOTES:
SFVS Community Agreements: We want everyone to have a great time at our events. The San Francisco Vegan Society Community Agreements is our simple way of making sure everyone feels respected, included and comfortable. It’s a shared promise to show up with kindness, listen well, and treat each other with care. Together, we can create a space where everyone belongs and thrives.
Group Organizer: As of June 3, 2025, SFVS became the organizer of this group. SFVS uses this Meetup group to share both Official SFVS Events and Community-Led Events. Only events that display the SFVS logo in the event image are SFVS-sponsored events. All other listings should be understood as community postings, not official SFVS programming. Community-led events are hosted by members or other organizations and are shared as a courtesy when they are related to veganism; they are not sponsored or endorsed by SFVS.
If you have questions about whether a specific event is SFVS-sponsored, please email [events@sfvs.org](mailto:events@sfvs.org) — we’re happy to clarify.
