MANDY AND HER BLACK SHEEP RETREAT SANCTUARY
Mandy Vara is a dedicated vegan and animal activist, a U.S. citizen living near Cancun, Mexico. Mandy runs a small sanctuary for farmed animals called Black Sheep Retreat. It started because of a little black lamb needing a home. With only 8 farm animal sanctuaries in the entire country, no one had space to take him in. So Mandy did! Mandy is struggling to keep her sanctuary going and her rescued animals safe. Please help by sending whatever you can to @BlackSheepRetreat

It’s got refired beans, black beans, chorizo, or whatever vegan meat crumble you like, and all the toppings you love.
