Last week, Jim Thompson and Theresa Stowell had the opportunity to sit with Joe Lee and Kevin Kloss of WAER FM Radio's podcast, The 3-1-5 to talk about the vegan movement here in Central New York, what Vegan CNY is all about and taste some treats from two of our favorite spots - Strong Hearts On The Hill and The Sweet Praxis.

There's been a trend growing if you pay attention to lifestyle and culture around the Syracuse area. Vegan items in restaurants and the availability ofThanks to all have already donated or planned to donate this week individually or as part of the Vegan CNY team!
Looks like they haven't even had to touch the money they've raised so far because of the enormous support of the community. Healthy vegan food is something they specifically asked for and I'm so happy that together we could answer that call.
Big thanks to Dr. Marcelle Haddix, a distinguished member of the Syracuse University faculty and Cafe Sankofa Cooperative for alerting us that the students were looking for healthy vegan food so that we could answer their call.

We would like to extend our support to the students who are occupying Barnes Center at the Arch(the gym) at SU. They are receiving some donations of food, but not much that's healthy, hot, and definitely nothing vegan.
If anyone interested in providing tasty vegan food to students, you can drop it off or let us know and we will arrange to get it there. The building opens on Sat/Sun at 10am and they also need food throughout the day/night.
#NotAgainSU is a Black student led nonviolent movement. This protest arose after series of racial hate crimes occured on campus followed by a lack of transparency and action by the University. Students were asked to not post on social media but they are now. If you want to learn more about what's going on you can search for the hashtag #notagainsu. It's more prevalent on Instagram and even Twitter but there is starting to be some on Facebook too, especially as supporters are learning and sharing. They'll likely be there until at least Wednesday.
Even if you can't help, please like and share to make sure this post gets into more feeds.
Feel free to message us on the page or email foodshare@vegancny.org
