Information
What WE Do:
  • Provide funding for the food, serving supplies, educational literature and any
    table/booth fees for serving vegan food (preferably at non-veg events or to an
    audience that is not familiar with vegan food or philosophy).
  • Provide recipes & educational literature ideas and a food table sign for printing
    on our resources page.
  • Send ONE check to ONE person or group for the approved grant after we
    receive receipts.

What YOU Do:
Before the Event:
  • Find local events being held in your area (such as art fairs, concerts, fund raisers
    for non-profits, parades, demonstrations, shelter adoption events, films, health
    fairs, farmers markets, church or synagogue events, festivals, meatouts,
    environmental tabling, campus events, etc) and research the possibility of
    serving free vegan food for the event.
  • Fill out the simple application form on this website and submit to VegFund.
  • Prepare a menu, keeping in mind: the number of people, supplies needed, etc.
    (we DON'T cover the cost of soft drinks or bottled water).
  • Find a few volunteers to help you.
  • If the event requires that food comes from a licensed kitchen, find a licensed
    kitchen to use or purchase prepared food from a grocery or caterer  (healthy
    plant-based foods please :).
  • If this is your first time doing an event like this, keep the menu simple.  A couple
    of delicious items to sample will bring people to your table and will not overwhelm
    you in the preparation and distribution.
  • Purchase and prepare all menu items.
During the Event:
  • Place our sign on the table near the food for people to read.
  • Provide free vegan educational literature at your table/booth.
  • Take photos of the COMPLETE table display and people hovering around!
After the Event:
  • Email us a brief review of your event, listing number of attendees, what you
    served, how it was received.  
  • Email photos of the literature, signage, food samples and people at the table.
  • VIA REGULAR MAIL- Send us the TOTAL of all receipts and the actual
    itemized receipts.  YOU CAN ONLY BE REIMBURSED IF YOU HAVE
    RECEIPTS and SUBMIT THEM WITHIN 30 DAYS OF THE EVENT! Please
    include your name and the name of the event. Receipts containing
    personal items (non-VegFund) should NOT be submitted.
  • Keep your eye out for other appropriate events in your area.
  • Please link VegFund to your website or social networking site.
HOW IT ALL WORKS
NOTE: It's not necessary to promote or thank VegFund at your table! The public
doesn't need to know about us. It is enough that you serve delicious vegan food and
distribute lots of great literature. All we ask in return is that you pass our contact
information along to other vegan activists. Together we can change the world!
