VegMichigan's Biggest Giveaway Ever!
VegMichigan has just launched a new initiative to distribute thousands of vegan food sample packs to college students who have never tried Beyond Burgers, vegan pizza, plant-based milks, and other popular vegan items. Our newly hired college ambassador, Sarah, will work to register non-veg students to the program on our registration page. In return for receiving the free package, students will agree to sign up for one of VegMichigan's free virtual presentations and provide feedback. All deliveries will be made using VegMichigan's 100% zero-emission vehicle. We will launch this initiative at the University of Michigan and Eastern Michigan University, but with your support we can expand to additional universities. We have negotiated a deal with Cottage Inn for a small vegan cheese and two-topping pizza voucher for $7 based on our purchase of 100 vouchers in advance. The retail price of this pizza is over $12. Additionally, we are taking delivery of 1,000 frozen Beyond Burgers and are purchasing hundreds of single-serve plant-based milks to launch the program. Each student will receive a box that will cost approximately $10. Please consider becoming a VegMichigan member or make a one-time special $10 donation to deliver an awesome free food starter pack to a student right here in Michigan.

Bracing for Winter: Tips to Help Get Through The Hard Months
Welcome back, VegMichigan friends! I can’t believe it’s November already and the holiday season is right around the corner! In November, we also see the start of the cold, dark, long, wintery months. Ugh. All around us, our animal friends are instinctively busy preparing to endure the upcoming season. Deer, rabbits, and squirrels are finding food and hiding it for later. Bears and skunks are trying to gain weight before going into hibernation. Many animals are growing thicker fur right now to help keep them warm. Earthworms are digging themselves deeper into the soil, and other animals are digging burrows and preparing to huddle close together for warmth. This poses an interesting question for humans: should we also be doing something to prepare ourselves for winter?
The Most Peaceful Place
Please watch this brief 3-minute video, and if it is something you feel might motivate your friends and family to reduce their consumption of animal products, please share it with them. This is a non-graphic video that will hopefully get people to think more about their food choices. Thanks for watching, and please consider subscribing to our channel after watching the video.

Vote For Your Favorite Vegan Pizza in Michigan
We're thrilled that vegan pizza is so common now, it can be found in nearly every corner of our state. VegMichigan worked closely with Buddy's Pizza years ago to add vegan cheese to its menu and even helped Buddy's launch an official VegMichigan pizza. More recently, we worked with Cottage Inn on the launch of its vegan menu with Violife cheese and plant-based meats available at select locations. Now, we need your help crowning the best vegan pizza in Michigan for 2020!

We've put together a list of more than two dozen vegan pizza options around the state and now it's your turn to help us decide! Vote for your favorite and share the survey with all of your friends so they can do the same. We've done our best to include all of the options we know of, but if we've missed your favorite, feel free to write it in! We'll tally your votes to narrow the list down to the Top 10 and will put it to a second-round vote in next month's newsletter to crown the winner in January.

VegMichigan is excited to present Humane Investing with Certified Financial Planner Brenda A. Morris!
