Humane Society International's Campaign against Factory Farming cordially invites you to
A Celebration of Compassion & Non-violence in Indian Culture
Billions of animals in India live out their lives on crowded, filthy factory farms; many don't even have enough space to fully stretch their limbs. These animals are being raised to feed India's growing fast-food / junk-food, meat-eating habits. However, this cruelty is in contradiction to the value of ahimsa or non-violence that is a hallmark of Indian culture.
