"Pay Per View"
Outreach and Funding Program

Background:
  • Video footage of factory farms, slaughterhouses, and other aspects of animal agriculture (livestock auctions, transport, live markets, etc.) is often powerful. Seeing and hearing the intense suffering of animals raised and killed for food can have a lasting impact on people, and prompt them to change their eating habits—specifically by replacing animal products in their diets with plant-based foods.
  • In public settings, where lots of advocacy takes place, there are two frequent challenges to getting people to view videos of animal agriculture cruelty: 1) They don't want to watch, because the footage may be highly disturbing. 2) Officials and patrons at street fairs, student union buildings, and similar venues don't want graphic videos to be broadcast where everyone, including children, can see them.
Our Solution:
  • We pay people a dollar to watch a short video.
  • We set up a private viewing booth, so passers-by can't see the video.
Your Opportunity:

This “Pay Per View” (PPV) technique has been so successful for us that we have started a program in which we fund your PPV advocacy. We'll have all the details of the program, including guidelines and applications, on the web site soon. In the meantime, please contact info@compassion4animals.org to inquire about the PPV funding program.

In addition, if you're in the greater Washington, DC area and you would like Compassion for Animals to set up a PPV display at your event, please contact us at info@compassion4animals.org. This offer is open to teachers, librarians, student clubs, street festival organizers, church/temple/mosque representatives, meetup leaders, animal protection group members—anyone.

More details coming soon...
