Help Spread Veg Living in 2025

We're distributing 5,000 copies of MN Veg Living Magazine 2025  across the state with your help!

Our annual magazine invites Minnesotans to try veg living. This year, we've set a goal to distribute it more broadly than ever before to engage more people.

We need your help as a matched donor, a volunteer, or both. More details are below.

Engaging the Public in Veg Living

This year's issue has articles about why someone might want to consider VegLiving, and connects people with resources on how to start a veg lifestyle. This year we made two changes to further encourage readers to try veg living.

• Coupons: businesses and organizations are offering coupons to try their plant-based food or get goods that promote veg living
• Incentive: we're offering a $100 gift card to Vegan Essentials to one lucky reader who takes our survey. The survey helps us measure the magazine's impact and encourages people to opt-in to our email list.

We've also increased the print run from 2,000 to 5,000 to reach more Minnesotans from across the state.

HELP WITH DISTRIBUTION

Volunteer to distribute copies

We need volunteers from across the Metro Area and the state to distribute copies of the latest issue.  We ask that you commit to keeping one or more locations near your home stocked with the magazine.  This is an easy way to make a big impact for animals with just an hour or so per month of your time.

While the opportunities are listed on weekends, you're welcome to distribute on any day of your choosing.

Financial support vital for distribution

The magazine costs $5,000 to print. That's about one dollar per copy. Volunteer authors and editors save us a great deal of money on production costs. Our generous sponsors cover about $1,000 of the cost. Foundation supporters cover an additional $3,000. Please help us raise the remaining $1000 we need.

Matched Giving Opportunity

An anonymous donor is offering a match of gifts up to $500 to help us cover the rest of our costs!

Gifts of any size are hugely appreciated.
