INDRALOKA’S LARGEST FUNDRAISER OF THE YEAR

ThanksLiving — Northeastern Pennsylvania’s jewel of fall — celebrates the life of all beings, especially turkeys and other farmed birds

Indraloka’s largest fundraiser of the year, ThanksLiving brings together humans and non-humans alike for a gourmet feast that highlights the bounty of compassionate food choices we all have.

First, the birds of Indraloka dine on an array of fresh produce. As the guests of honor, the birds receive royal treatment. Adults and children of all ages help feed the birds their special banquet.

Afterward, the attention shifts to the human guests. Catered by the unmatched talents of Chef Sara Liu of Parlor City Vegan, a plant-based Thanksgiving-inspired spread greets every donor with the delicious aromas of autumn.

After the feast for the animals, guests will enjoy:

  • A delicious seasonal, plant-based, catered meal
  • Live music,
  • A raffle,
  • A silent auction,
  • and more.

Raffles feature fabulous prizes and Indraloka-themed merchandise is available for purchase.

This year, we’ll also have games where guests can vote for their favorite beloved rescued farm animal.

The evening features a live Sponsor-An-Animal Auction that helps develop relationships between donors and animals.

As always, we’ll have live music, time to mingle with the beloved animals, and children’s games.

ThanksLiving raises nearly $100,000 and is critical to preparations for the winter months when hay costs and electric bills are high and volunteer participation is low.

As Indraloka continues to expand its services — from the groundbreaking NEPA Rescue Veterinary Clinic to Programs that help participants overcome trauma and develop resiliency — you will be a vital part of an extraordinary organization that seeks to support life in all its forms.

Join us for this unique, anticipated sell-out event!
