Donate To Our Mission
We are dedicated to educating and informing San Diegans about the benefits of eating a whole-food, plant-based diet — for optimal nutrition and health; environmental sustainability (including mitigation of food waste); and for compassion and mindfulness in food choices. PlantDiego is a 501(c)(3) Non Profit and are a project under our umbrella organization Social Good Fund.
Our mission is to mobilize the San Diego community toward a whole-food, plant-based lifestyle. We aim to be a source of support, information, encouragement, and action to those pursuing a healthier life through diet. We believe in positive health outcomes for all through compassionate, plant-based living which excludes harm to animals and promotes environmental sustainability.
Our goal is to create a place for any vegan, vegetarian, or veg-curious person to receive information about the benefits of a plant-based lifestyle, the impact a plant-based diet has on the environment, and ways to get involved in local activities from social events to protests.
