Guest guest Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 Hi folks, While leafletting is not my most favorite activity, I do believe it makes a difference to get this veg info out to people, esp. college students who may be more receptive to our message. So, I signed up with the Adopt-a-College program sponsored by Vegan Outreach ( http://www.veganhealth.org/colleges ) I adopted the Academy of Arts College in SF since it's the only college accessible to me during the daytime. I've been going monthly since November. I go during my lunch hour, for about 30 minutes, and typically pass out 40-50 brochures (either Why Vegans or Try Vegetarians). My approach is pretty low-key. If you can say "hello" and hold out a brochure, you've got the basic skills to leaflet. So, if you'd like to join me, we could easily double or triple the amount of literature distributed.... and increase opportunities to give someone the information they need to become veg. The next time I'm planning to go is Wedn, 3/17. If you're interested in joining up with me this time, or for a future opportunity, please email me and let's stay in touch. Oh! There's also several other local folks participating and leafletting in this campaign at other schools; and there's lots of colleges that still haven't been adopted. Folks like Gabe & Jack have given away thousands of brochures... Yes, my distribution count is so woeful and pitiful and sad and lamentable by comparison... But, in the time that you've read this, we could have given out a few brochures! So, hope to hear from you about leafletting ...

Guest guest Posted February 29, 2004 Report Share Posted February 29, 2004 Tammy, Thanks a lot for posting something about Vegan Outreach's Adopt a College program! >Yes, my distribution count is so woeful and pitiful and sad and lamentable by comparison... But, in the time that you've read this, we could have given out a few brochures! I think you're doing a great job! You have handed out over 100 pamphlets this semester alone. Every little bit counts. I'm sure you've influence at least some people to start down the path to vegetarianism, influencing their friends along the way. Each person we effect creates a ripple effect.
