Donation: Adopt-a-Turkey from Farm Sanctuary

This quarter's donation is going to a special cause... the Adopt-a-Turkey campaign at Farm Sanctuary.

This month, while all those friends and family members of yours eat turkeys that are so sick and fat they could never stand up, you can feel good knowing that your turkey money is going to a good cause. Farm Sanctuary provides a home for neglected and abused farm animals, and during the fall, they advocate for turkeys, rescue them, and provide new homes where they can thrive.

You can click through and pick out the turkey you want to sponsor. I just love Victoria's purple skin, and the some of those guy roosters have amazing comb and gobbles! I choose peace and love and not animal brutality.
