The Humane School Initiative

The Humane School Initiative The Humane School Initiative is a program from THE HUMANE FOUNDATION, Inc. (www.facebook.com/thehumanefoundation)

The HSI is established in schools by means of an HSI Committee with representatives from the different school departments and the students body. The HSI looks to work with all the school departments to implement school wide initiatives to:

1- Fight all forms of violence, hate, bullying, and discrimination so that we may have SAFER schools.
2- Act in an environmentally and sustainably manner so t

hat we reduce our carbon footprint, and to consume in an ethical and sustainable way to have GREENER and more SUSTAINABLE schools.
3- Treat all sentient beings, including the animals with compassion and kindness so that we can have more HUMANE schools. Our way to do this is through HUMANE EDUCATION, consisting according The Institute of Humane Education (www.humaneeducation.org) in:

1- “ Providing accurate information about the issues of our time so that people have the information they need to understand the consequences of their decisions as citizens.

2- Fostering curiosity, creativity, and critical thinking, so that people can evaluate information and solve problems.

3- Instilling reverence, respect, and responsibility, so that people have the motivation to face challenges and to act with integrity. Offering positive choices that benefit oneself, other people, the animals, and the Earth, and tools for problem solving so that people are empowered to create a more humane world.”

HUMANE EDUCATION, which “may well be the most revolutionary and effective effort that we as a society can undertake to create a peaceful and just world. “ (IHE)

HSI Welcomes the 2015-16 members to the HumaneEd Clubs hoping we can continue working to create a humane world for all.

Today as it is our tradition The Humane Club at Hialeah High had out Turkey-less Vegan Thanksgiving Putlock. We watched one of the videos from Mercy For Animals to be reminded why we chose to have a Turkey-less Thanksgivng Meal, then we gave thanks, we ate and we ended up collecting money to adopt one of these guys from Farm Sanctuary. Have a Happy Vegan Thanksgiving!

Sponsoring a turkey is a central part of the Thanksgiving tradition. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Last year, thousands of folks "adopted" a turkey as part of their compassionate holiday celebrations. Once you sponsor your turkey, share with your friends and spread the love!

This is a good initiative to share positive messages, to start a conversation, or direct people to a website where they can learn more anout the causes we stand up for.

As a student, you already know that one of the best places—if not the best place—to make the biggest difference for animals is at your school. peta2 makes it pretty easy for you, too, with resources like the “Veggie Burger Project” and our “Cut Out Dissection” campaign. But guess what?
