Vegan For Health
Most of the Fund's grantee organizations promote veganism -- whether to save animals, our environment, individual human lives, or all three.
The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM) is a primary Fund grantee for its authoritative and influential work to promote human health through plant-based eating.
Since spring 2019, the Fund has been a sponsor of The Exam Room™ podcast on the latest news in vegan nutrition and medicine, now published 2x/week on the PCRM website and also on Google Play, iTunes, Stitcher and Spotify.
Since spring 2020, the Fund has also been a sponsor of The Exam Room's Facebook Live broadcasts, concurrently published on Youtube.
In 2021, The Exam Room logged a total of 6 million downloads of nearly 300 episodes, making it the top nutrition podcast in 79 countries.
