Thanks to our donors, Plant Futures programs are now active at over 100 universities and chapters across 40 U.S. states, plus Mexico, Canada, and China.
From student-led farms to cross-border collaborations, students in our network are transforming food systems, rooted in justice, care, and community.
Your gift is matched 1:1 until Dec 31. ↓
*UP TO $5,000 USD
To celebrate reaching 100+ chapters, our friend and supporter Eric Arellano is offering a 1:1 matching grant up to $5K.
“I'm matching $5,000 to Plant Futures Initiative because they are training the next generation to shift our food system to something better for animals and the planet. I am especially excited about Plant Futures Initiative reaching new audiences by showing students how our food system impacts the environment and public health — not only animals — and that many fields people usually ignore can help out, such as marketing and engineering.”
- Eric Arellano
That means:
$25 → $50
covers materials and snacks for a chapter meeting that brings new students into the movement
$100 → $200
seeds a mini-grant for a plant-based tasting, film screening, or guest speaker
$1K → $2K
helps launch a new chapter or train student leaders driving culture and dining hall change
Our budget is still relatively small,
so your gift isn’t a drop in the bucket - it’s fuel.
Plant Futures Chapters are:
Shifting dining hall menus toward plant-centered options
Hosting plant-based tailgates, tastings, and film nights
Bringing food systems into medical, business, and policy schools
They’re building a better food system on their campuses,
and creating a model for universities everywhere.
