Thrive Philanthropy Unites its Global Family of Plant-Based Advocates and Grantees from 17 Countries for a Moment of Connection at AVA Summit Los Angeles

Thrive Philanthropy captured a special moment at the Animal & Vegan Advocacy (AVA) Summit in Los Angeles—our annual Thrive family gathering! The event brought together grantees, board members, staff, and steering committee members from 17 countries, including Mexico, Uganda, the Philippines, Thailand, China, Lithuania, Brazil, Liberia, Vietnam, Italy, Greece, India, South Africa, the USA, and more.

With grantees from over 80 countries and leadership spanning the globe, Thrive Philanthropy has grown beyond a traditional funder. We are now a global movement, dedicated to transforming food systems, removing animals from industrial agriculture, and building local, sustainable, climate-friendly food solutions.

Even as we expand, Thrive remains steadfast in its commitment to trust-based and equitable philanthropy, dismantling funding barriers, and sharing decision-making power with those closest to the work.

By connecting advocates, providing resources, and supporting innovative projects, Thrive Philanthropy continues to amplify the impact of plant-based advocacy worldwide.
