It’s back-to-school season, which means college students are returning to campuses across the country. This guide was made to help college students learn how to eat their ethics and advocate for change across their campuses! Order our informative, full-color, 20-page printed guide today!
Order our Vegan Soul Food recipe guide now!
We are proud to announce that our Vegan Soul Food recipe guide is now available to order! This 48-page, full-color booklet highlights the wide variety of flavor-filled foods from the African diaspora that do not include animal ingredients and showcases that it is possible to eat vegan and still incorporate our traditional favorites. And by launching during Black History Month, we’re celebrating the power of the Black community and their resilience in preserving traditions from generation to generation.
Shell Shock: The Cruelty Inside Exotic Eggs
First, let’s be clear: There is cruelty inside every animal-based egg produced for consumption. Eggs are among the world’s most ubiquitous foods, but while eggs from chickens may be the type many of us imagine when we think of eggs, there are scores of other types that humans consume—and not all are from birds. Here, then, is an exploration of some of the most popular “exotic” or “specialty” eggs, along with some uncommon ones. (For the purposes of this page, we will not address eggs that are consumed solely for survival.)
Check out our new page: Consider Insects & Worms
Our latest page tackles the issues surrounding consuming insects, worms and other things they make. Now being raised and killed by the trillions for consumption, insects are subjected to many of the same cruelties as chickens, pigs, cows, and other farmed animals, such as cramped housing, poor nutrition, and inhumane slaughter methods, including being frozen, baked, boiled, microwaved, or mechanically shredded—all while still alive.
Food Empowerment’s Youth Zine is Here!
Food Empowerment Project’s (F.E.P.) Youth Zine, Envision, is here! This Youth Zine is created for youth and by youth as a form of expression to release energy and grow hope! Youth hold the power to make change, but need cathartic spaces to re-energize themselves to envision a society they are proud of. Envision is designed for all young people who want to learn and strengthen their advocacy for the rights of human and non-human animals.

Our Mission
Food Empowerment Project seeks to create a more just and sustainable world by recognizing the power of one’s food choices.
We encourage healthy food choices that reflect a more compassionate society by spotlighting the abuse of animals on farms, the depletion of natural resources, unfair working conditions for produce workers, and the unavailability of healthy foods in low-income areas.
By making informed choices, we can prevent injustices against animals, people, and the environment. We also work to discourage negligent corporations from pushing unhealthy foods into low-income areas and empower people to make healthier choices by growing their own fruits and vegetables. In all of our work, Food Empowerment Project seeks specifically to empower those with the fewest resources.
Help us in the fight to bring food justice to all
By recognizing and making informed food choices, we can prevent injustices against people, the environment, and animals. Your support will help Food Empowerment Project get one step closer to a more just and sustainable world.
