009: Building a Kinder Economy: Faik Bouhrik’s Mission to Uplift Animal Sanctuaries Worldwide
Many animal sanctuaries are underfunded, yet they play a critical role in protecting animals and educating the public. Faik Bouhrik, cosmologist, educator, and founder of Veggies, is turning that challenge into opportunity.
On this episode of Better Life for Animals, hosted by Cheryl Moss, Bouhrik shares how his platform—Veggies (veggius.com)—connects vegan-friendly travel and events with direct financial support for animal sanctuaries. Think Airbnb meets Eventbrite, but with a mission.
With 50% of service fees going to sanctuaries, a public-facing impact tracker, and zero extra effort required from partner organizations, Veggies is setting a new standard for ethical business in the plant-based world.
In This Episode:
-
What inspired Bouhrik to launch Veggies
-
How sanctuaries benefit without hosting events
-
The power of merging commerce with compassion
-
Why transparency and ethics are the future of vegan business
