Vegan Event Grant Recipient: Friends of Oakland Animal Services

We're excited to announce another vegan event grant recipient, Friends of Oakland Animal Services! This wonderful organization partners with Oakland Animal Services to take in over 5,000 homeless animals each year and provide critical services such as veterinary care. While they've had smaller events with vegan options, their first fully vegan event, Raise the Woof!, was so successful that it sold out!

Their guests loved the food! Here was their mouth-watering vegan menu:

  • Broccoli, potato, and cheddar tofu quiche

  • Smoked Gouda, bacon, and spinach turnovers

  • Soy chicken salad spinach wraps

  • Blue cheese almond stuffed baby portobello mushrooms

  • Almond Ricotta stuffed shiitake mushrooms topped with tomato and basil-walnut pesto

  • Tomato-basil bruschetta

  • Olive tapenade with Miyoko's cheese

  • Artichoke dip

  • Caesar Salad kabob

They also completely ran out of dessert which were catered by Timeless Cafe! We're happy to hear that there was a wide variety of plant-based options for everyone to enjoy!
