This Giving Tuesday, December 2, we invite you to support the Animal Agriculture Alliance in safeguarding the future of animal agriculture, and all those who make it possible.
Every day, farmers, ranchers, veterinarians, and food industry professionals dedicate themselves to ensuring a safe, sustainable, and secure food supply. The Alliance exists to support these farmers and the industries they work in; by bringing their stories forward and building understanding to protect their ability to produce a stable food supply.
As you consider whether or not to donate this Giving Tuesday, here are five reasons why your support of the Animal Agriculture Alliance matters more than ever:
1. We protect farms and the food community.
Today’s farm and food sectors face constant challenges ranging from misconceptions in the grocery store to animal rights extremist threats on the farm. The Alliance works to arm the farm and food communities with the tools and resources they need to stay informed, resilient, and secure. Through our monitoring of animal rights organizations, legislative tracking, and media advocacy, we help safeguard both farms and the people behind them. When you give to the Alliance, you help ensure that the truth about animal agriculture is defended and that those who dedicate their lives to feeding others are supported.
2. We empower the next generation of advocates.
The future of agriculture depends on strong, informed voices. Through our College Aggies Online and Animal Ag Allies programs, the Alliance is cultivating tomorrow’s leaders: students, young professionals, and farmers who are passionate about sharing accurate and credible information about animal agriculture. These programs provide mentorship, training, and confidence to the next generation of animal agriculturalists.
3. We bridge the gap from farm to fork.
In an increasingly urbanized world, fewer people have direct connections to farming, but the curiosity about where food comes from has never been higher. The Alliance helps bridge the gap through education and outreach to food brands and nutrition professionals who influence consumer perception of food choices. By promoting transparency and understanding, we help build trust and appreciation for the farmers behind our food supply.
4. We unite voices across the food chain.
Collaboration is one of the Alliance’s greatest strengths. We bring together farmers, ranchers, veterinarians, processors, retailers, and foodservice professionals to address emerging issues within animal agriculture. By fostering partnerships across all sectors of the food system, from consumers to farmers and ranchers, the Alliance ensures that the animal agriculture community is ready to face challenges together, as a united front.
5. We give farmers and ranchers a voice.
The heart of the Alliance’s mission is emphasizing the voices of those who contribute to animal agriculture every day. By sharing these stories and standing up for those who feed the world, we ensure their perspectives are represented in public discussions about food and farming.
This Giving Tuesday, your support matters.
Every dollar you give helps the Alliance continue its work to connect, engage, and protect, the animal agriculture community. Your contribution fuels education, outreach, and collaboration that strengthens the future of farming and ensures that animal agriculture remains an essential part of society. Plus, any donation made will be matched by the U.S. Poultry & Egg Association, so your contribution will go twice as far.
Join us this Giving Tuesday in standing up for the people, animals, and values that keep our food system strong.
