Celebration: Los Angeles 2001
Thanks to all the wonderful sponsors, exhibitors, celebrities,
musicians and scores of attendees that made WorldFest-LA 2001 a huge success!
Drawing 12-13,000 attendees, it was bigger and better than last year. WorldFest
was a success not only because so many people came out, not only because animals
lives were saved, not only because the media coverage was so good, but because
were able to touch the hearts of so many people with the message of compassion..

We
had 12,000-13,000 people show up at WorldFest on a record breaking
hot day! Thanks to all the
exhibitors, volunteers, celebrities, and attendees!

The
"Compassion in Action" section was swarmed with thousands of
people who wanted to learn how to do their part to make this world a
better place.

had Animal Adoptions at WorldFest. Dreams came true and true love
was found at WorldFest. Homeless animals were given shelter by many
wonderful new guradians who will make sure that they are never lonely
again!

Best-selling
authors John Robbins, co-founder of EarthSave International, and
Howard Lyman, ex-cattle rancher turned vegan and vegie libel suit
co-defendant (with Oprah Winfrey) were both hits. Thousands were
inspired by their wisdom and compassionate words.

If
anyone there had ever wondered what vegetarians eat, their questions
were well answered! A huge variety of delicious vegan ethnic and
American foods was served from the 30 different food booths. |
|
The
children's area was teeming with fun and inspiration as children got
to learn about various environmental issues through games,
story-telling and more! |

The
LAPD was at its compassionate best at WorldFest. This officer proudly
displayed a "Fishing Hurts" sticker. |
|
Over
150 vendors from all over the country came to exhibit
environmentally-friendly products, foods, and services. |

|
At
the Gentle Barn's booth children and adults learn that chicken's are
wonderful animals that make great friends!
|
The
LA fire and police departments were awarded by Casey Kasem for their
selfless community service. Among the participants were firemen and a
