Where can you find these new vegan sandwiches? Check out our list below — and be sure to stop by soon. If these new options prove to be popular, they may soon spread to more locations nationwide.

And if you don’t live in the DC-area but would like to see these vegan options offered in a Subway store near you, be sure to let the company know by contacting them through their website at WeLoveSubway.com today or call them now at 203-877-4281!

Please make plans to join Animal Advocates of Arizona to distribute educational leaflets to circus patrons with encouragement to instead patronize fun, humane family entertainment, rather than the abusive animal circus. The time commitments are very short and you’ll be making a direct, positive difference for these animals. We’ll be distributing leaflets before eight of Ringling’s shows from June 27th to July 1st. We are most grateful for any help you can offer.

No need to bring materials, all leaflets (and ice cold water!) will be provided. For anyone who has not leafleted before, we encourage you to come on out! We’ll be there every step of the way to help you help the animals ~ keep in mind that there was always a first time for every seasoned leafleter.
