Toube Benedetto

Toube’s empathy for animals goes back to before she can even remember, based on hearing stories of sharing her ice cream cones with her dog and passionately protesting when she saw her parents put live crabs in a pot of boiling water. Becoming a vegetarian at 16 and eventually an ethical vegan was her natural path in life. Toube’s advocacy includes everything from fundraising and protests to her tattoos and baked goods, but her favorite part is planting seeds of compassion with non-vegans to help change the world for animals.
