Did You Bring the Hummus? with Kimberly Winters Episode 129 - Putting Your Money Where Your Values Are with Deanna Meyler
Today, I am joined by Deanna Meyler. Deanna cares strongly about social justice and has been vegan since 1998. Today she is the Director of Development at the Lancaster Cleft Palate Clinic. It is the only independent nonprofit and approved craniofacial care clinic in the United States that accepts all patients, no matter their background or ability to pay. In the past, Deanna led a small nonprofit focused on animal rights, was part of the advocacy team at a large immigration rights nonprofit, worked in advertising/consulting for a decade, and was in academia for a decade. Deanna has a PhD in sociology, advanced certification in Community Leadership, is a Master Certified Vegan Lifestyle Coach & Educator, and has a certification in plant-based nutrition. She is the founder of An Everyday Vegan, a lifestyle website. Deanna’s personal mission is to make the world a better place one meal at a time.
That’s not all Deanna is up to though, as a member of the Leadership team of Women Funders in Animal Rights (WFAR), Deanna is part of an organization that is making it possible for those of us who want to have an impact in the animal rights movement not just with our actions but with our money too. For those listening to this episode when it is first released on March 2nd, WFAR is holding their next open meeting (guests are welcome) on Tuesday, March 10th at 3pm EDT, 12pm PDT, the topic for the meeting is generosity.
