Hello Animals Voice Supporter!
All good things must come to an end — and so it is with sadness and yet with pride, as well, that we need to let you know we are folding The Animals Voice Magazine.
We are sad because we hate to see it go, given what we know this magazine has provided worldwide over the years to change the way people view and treat animals. We're proud because the three of us on staff have given it our all-time best and we're putting the magazine to rest knowing that it helped launch and sustain the animal rights movement these past two decades.
Times are changing. The Internet is full of information and most of it is free. It appears too much to ask for $25 for a print publication in this high-tech era, at least in the numbers needed to sustain a magazine. We've been sinking lower into debt with each issue we have printed since July 2006 and so we have decided to stop the spiral before it completely buries us.
To honor what is left of your subscription, VegNews Magazine will be fulfilling the remaining number of issues you paid for. If you are already a subscriber to VegNews Magazine, please give your additional copies away to inspire more people about the possibilities of living a life that honors all living beings.
What will we be doing next? Well, the fact is that the magazine was only half of the work we've been doing at The Animals Voice. AnimalsVoice.com is still the largest independent online resource for animals and their defenders. We will continue to offer our visitors the largest image gallery of animal exploitation online — bar none. We will continue to link to thousands of animal defense groups around the world and enable activists to network with each other. We will continue to provide our globally updated calendar of events, along with our countless pages of editorial, news, investigative reports, articles and essays, poetry and prose. And we will continue to produce a unique weekly eNewsletter that promotes the work of organizations and activists on a worldwide scale. We also have amazing books for sale. Access to this information is available on our site.
But more than that: with just our online work to focus on, we are redesigning our already expansive and powerful web site so that it will offer you yet more links to groups and facts and video, and we'll be adding even more images, much more information, and most importantly, more ways for you to meet, interact with, and be empowered by other activists at local, regional and international levels. We are going to become the Amazon-YouTube-MySpace equivalent of the animal rights movement!
A door closes, and a window opens. We are using this opportunity to make room for bigger and better ways to provide what you need to make more differences for more animals.
Lastly, any donation you can give us will help us lower our debt particularly for the printing company that did its best to keep us in your mailbox even when we couldn't. We currently owe $3,275 to that printer; we owe $313 in postage for mailing past issues, and we owe $799 for computer programs and updates used to create the magazine. You can donate by mailing a check or donating online. Any funds we get in excess of those debts will be used to make our site all the easier to navigate and all the more effective in helping you help animals.
Thank you for your devoted support of The Animals Voice Magazine. Please visit this page for free access to pdfs and how to buy our seven issues published between July 2006 and Winter 2007.
We deeply appreciate each and every single thing you have done, are doing and will do, to make a difference for animals, and we look forward to hearing about your successes as we all work toward living in a world that works for everyone, and everything, with no one and nothing left out.
For Animals Everywhere,
