About UR-VEG
We're UR undergraduates, grads, alumni and staff committed to animal protection. Our goal is to reduce unnecessary animal suffering by helping people lead healthy and compassionate veg*an lifestyles.
SAVVY is our affiliate group for undergraduates, the Students Association of Vegetarian and Vegan Youth. SAVVY sponsors educational events, field trips, potluck dinners and rides to local groceries and restaurants.Anyone interested in vegetarianism, veganism or animal protection is welcome; you don't have to be vegetarian to join us!
