WHAT WE BELIEVE
Love Always is a vegan sanctuary meaning we do not support animals being eaten or used for their byproducts (milk, eggs, wool, fur, leather, etc), or forced into sports, entertainment, etc. We advocate for the animals by sharing information about a vegan lifestyle, the sad truths about the commercial industries and more. However, we NEVER want to make someone feel bad about their current choices (we strongly believe this turns people away from, not toward, veganism). Love Always believes in being kind to ALL kinds (including the human kind) and leading by example not force.
You do not need to be vegan to volunteer, but we do ask that you respect that we are a vegan sanctuary and teach and share what and how we ask while here.
