While we’re on the subject of baking… the folks in SF are gearing up for their 4th SF Vegan Bakesale!
The benefiting organizations for this upcoming round will be WildCare (the only place to take injured and/or sick wild animals for good quality care in the bay area) and Virunga National Park in DR, Congo.
The money they’ll raise will be used to protect the mountain gorillas who live in Virunga.There are roughly 720 mountain gorillas remaining on Earth, and over half live in the forests of the Virunga mountains in Central Africa. They desperately need the money to help protect the ones who remain.
Check back here or on Vegansaurus for more details on the time and exact location.

Last but not least…
There’s a new dog food on the market we’re dying to try! The Humane Society of the United States has released a cruelty-free, all natural and certified organic “Humane Choice” dog food.
The HSUS developed this new product to offer consumers a wholesome and nutritious dog food that does not contain animal-based proteins or support the factory farming industry. The Humane Choice dog food is currently available in several independently owned pet supply stores and at PETCO.com and will soon be on store shelves at selected Whole Foods locations this spring. You can also order a bag (or 10) at Amazon.com.
The HSUS will receive 6 percent of the wholesale price of each 6.6-pound bag sold and will use the funds in its programs to provide spaying and neutering and other veterinary care for animals, to rescue animals from natural disasters and cruelty cases, to conduct undercover investigations of animal abuse and more.
