Rebecca is deeply committed to fostering a compassionate world for animals, and her journey as an advocate spans various avenues of activism. Since embracing veganism in 2017, she has dedicated herself to raising awareness and promoting the well-being of our fellow beings.
Rebecca's activism journey began with street outreach in 2018, where she engaged in impactful conversations and organized local demonstrations to shed light on the inherent cruelty of the animal industry. Over time, she has expanded her reach, orchestrating thought-provoking events like animal rights marches and standing in solidarity at vigils outside slaughterhouses.
In addition to her on-the-ground efforts, Rebecca leverages digital platforms to amplify the message of compassion and activism. Through her YouTube channel, she conducts interviews with fellow activists, sharing their stories and providing valuable insights to inspire others to join the cause. She also offers practical tips and resources for individuals looking to advocate for animals in their own communities, empowering them to make a difference.
Recognizing the importance of structured learning, Rebecca has taken steps to facilitate educational initiatives, such as courses on everyday activism through the Animal Justice Academy. These initiatives aim to equip individuals with the knowledge and skills needed to effectively advocate for animal rights, fostering a global network of compassionate activists.
In addition to her role as an Administrative Assistant, Rebecca has been a dedicated volunteer organizer for We The Free since its soft launch in 2020. In this multifaceted role, she has actively contributed to the growth and impact of the platform, organizing events, engaging with the community, and supporting initiatives that promote social justice and animal rights. Join her on this journey towards a more just and compassionate future for all beings. Together, we can make a meaningful difference!
Working for We The Free fills me with profound gratitude.
Their commitment to nurturing new leaders within the animal rights movement, offering free training to empower the cause, and their willingness to evolve through learning from missteps, inspires me daily. It's a blessing to be part of a team dedicated to Animal Liberation.
