Mr. Lyth shared that despite not having secured long-term backers, the organization has consistently supported 50 women’s groups each season by providing them with vegetable seeds. Additionally, they have conducted awareness campaigns to foster a culture of compassion within the community.

Presently, the organization sustains 25 groups with financial assistance from well-wishers. A notable upcoming endeavor is the Vegan Festival scheduled for December 2023.

This two-day event aims to enhance public understanding of the benefits of a plant-based lifestyle and promote humane treatment of animals within society.

While the exact date remains undecided due to financial constraints, Mr. Bob Rumanzi, the Executive Director of Vegan Village Society, affirmed the event’s existence and expressed hope to confirm the date once adequate funding is secured.
