Are you interested in creating massive change for animals and helping save countless lives? Please join [VSDC](www.vsdc.org) and vegan Meetup friends on Saturday, November 16th, for the bimonthly presentation by Thomas Goodman, President of Plant Dining Partnership, on creating partnerships that make it advantageous for businesses to promote plant-based eating (schools, colleges, restaurants, chains, etc.)
Plant-based eating is a burgeoning business that needs a push to become a forefront issue in the national consciousness. [Plant Dining Partnership](https://www.plantdiningpartnerships.org/) focuses on creating partnerships that make it advantageous for businesses, plant-based enthusiasts, and non-profit leaders to promote plant-based eating (schools, colleges, restaurants, chains, etc.). PDP has established this monthly Lunch and Learn in the DC area, which features a presentation, delicious plant-based foods at a local restaurant, and networking opportunities.
The registration fee includes lunch:
* Build-Your-Own Taco Bar
* Jackfruit Carnitas
* Chick’n Caesar Salad
Additional items are available for a fee.
VSDC is grateful to Aashish Bhimani for his efforts in planning this event.
