What we’re about
Compassionate Action for Animals encourages people to embrace their empathy for animals and move towards a plant-based diet so all animals, human and non-human, can thrive. We welcome everyone who is vegan, moving towards plant-based eating, or looking for information or support.

## Vegan Recipe Club General Details
The Vegan Recipe Club is for everyone—those curious about vegan cooking and those more experienced with it. The club explores plant-based recipes created by cooks of varying cultures and nationalities and cookbooks are suitable for the novice to experienced cook.
This club aims to feature recipes that are great tasting and support the health of participants. It’s a chance to build community with others interested in vegan cooking. Best of all, these meals also help the animals and the environment!
