Dear A Compassionate World (ACW) Supporters:
We are thankful for your support through generous donations and purchase of goods through our in-house lines, Avirose and Vedanta. We’ve accomplished quite a lot this year which we’re excited to share with you. Read on for the highlights!
Animal Rescues
Almighty Animals, our India-based sister animal welfare organization, was able to rehabilitate multiple animals in distress – through an ACW grant powered by your donations.
Gauri, a cow, was rescued and treated for severe acid burns and infections around her neck and head.
Two helpless puppies, separated from their mother at a young age, were discovered infested with maggots in a drain but received immediate care.
Champion, a resilient calf, survived being run over by a vehicle and received treatment, now showing signs of standing again.
Chetak, a once dehydrated and malnourished horse, is now on the path towards regaining his mobility.
Through your donations we also support Raksha Make A Difference, a growing animal welfare and rights organization in Prayagraj, India.
Kittu, a cute kitten, suffered injuries after being run over by a vehicle, resulting in the amputation of one hind leg and deformation of the other. With intervention from Raksha, she’s now healing well.
Daisy, a calf, is recovering well after treatment for a broken limb and bleeding from a head injury.
Raunak, a goat, was saved from slaughter – thankful to provide him a new lease on life.
We aided Sunitha Christy, a dedicated animal rescuer, with emergency funds to protect and care for needy animals.
Hari, a calf destined for slaughter, was saved thanks to generous donations – his rescue underscores the impact of community support in sparing animals from such fates.
Funds have also been allocated for cow mats, ensuring the comfort and well-being of cows in shelters.
Expanding our global footprint, we are pleased to further extend our support to US-based animal sanctuaries starting with Little Hill Sanctuary this year.
Judy the goat, along with her daughter Liza, were rescued from slaughter. Both goats subsequently gave birth – Judy to triplets, and Liza to a daughter – bringing the total of rescued animals to six.
Additionally, we facilitated a substantial donation of dog food, ensuring ongoing care for this sanctuary's canine residents.
Outreach and Tabling
March 9th, 2024 | International Women’s Day
It was our pleasure to host an event honoring all the strong women in our society and celebrate what they do for our community.
We dedicated this event to our partners at Avirose and their underprivileged, all-women workforce.
Our celebration was filled with delicious vegan delights, exquisite Avirose handicrafts to revel in and purchase, and immense joy.
April 20th, 2024 | Earth and Arbor Day
Earth Day is always a reminder of how food and lifestyle choices make a big impact on our environment.
With many of the youth and adults we met already inclined towards a plant-based lifestyle, we're reassured that the future of our environment is in good hands.
July 20th, 2024 | Vegan Dosa Party
Thanks to the gracious hospitality of our friends Girija and Ravi, ACW was able to host a well-attended Vegan Dosa Party!
It’s always beautiful to see a community come together in support of our cause.
Together we enjoyed delectable, homemade plant-based delights and sold eco-friendly, handcrafted products courtesy Avirose.
August 4th, 2024 | Youth Climate Action Summit
We were excited to be back at the Silicon Valley Youth Climate Action (SVYCA) Summit as a community partner, where we listened to some incredible panelists and had insightful conversations with other attendees.
Similar to last year’s event, we shared scrumptious plant-based snacks and sweets to showcase to our youth how food and lifestyle changes make a sizable impact to mitigate climate change.
Product Sales
Our partnership with Avirose and its artisans continues to thrive and we’ve sold products worth $2,200+ so far in 2024.
Each piece – ranging from stoles, to bags, to table-runners – is a testament to these artisans’ skill and creativity, reflecting rich cultural heritage and craftsmanship.
By bringing these gorgeous handcrafted items to a broader audience, we not only support the continuation of this timeless craft, but also ensure a sustainable livelihood for their families.
Through this initiative, Avirose’s all-women ensemble are offered financial stability and a brighter future, enriching our homes with their exceptional creations.
Concluding these cherished wins by once again expressing our deepest gratitude for your gracious contributions towards uplifting our society – spanning immediate community, our beloved animals, and the underprivileged. We’re truly blessed to have your ongoing support on this compassionate journey.
With warm regards and best wishes,
A Compassionate World Team
