Sturdy, dependable, eco-conscious, good looking, and never afraid to speak up for animals. Nope, we’re not talking about your dream boy or girl—we’re talking about the new PETA Mission Statement Tote!
This tote bag is 100% cotton and big enough to hold an animal emergency kit, carry your groceries, or tote signs and leaflets to a protest (get it—tote materials in a tote? Hey, we thought it was clever). It also looks totally hip, so you’re bound to get compliments on it and questions about your choice to live cruelty-free.
Bottom line? Use this tote and never be silent!

Too long to explain here, it's long enough for a novel.
Well let's just say life ain't always beautiful but it's a beautiful ride. I love all my pets and would do anything for them. I have one dog, two cats, a ferret and my babygirl shaymin,(the cutest hedgehog alive) I'm into all different kinds of music. I'm a singer myself and love art.
Father loves to farm, be self sustainable, loves to read, he's a antiques/vintage auctioneer, art student, and looks like mr. Rogers. My mother is a Montessori teacher and is amazing with children, all about local organic foods, loves gardening, cooking etc. my sister who is nine years older than me was into indie music and introduced me to all sorts of things at a young age. This all rubbed of on me and from that base I grew into similar things. I'm an INFJ
I'm tall, a geek, nacho - obsessed, I love sewing and Cath Kidston, also I'm vegetarian (wannabe vegan.)
Jersey girl now I'm all country.
I love animals about as much as rock, heavy metal, tea, and coffee. Hoping to make a difference and help animals through PETA!!!
I want to get into marketing but not have to rely on people which have different morals and worldviews than I do to hire me. While I'm figuring this out, I want to show everyone what I believe in and spur them into action against injustices.

I am Angela. When I am not helping animals I am listening to music, reading, or playing video games. My spirit animal is a fox and I love nature. What else is there to know? Want to know anything about me, need advice or anything message me :)

It could be my new school bag! I previously used a farm sanctuary messenger bag that read “a compassionate world begins with you” but It broke just a few days ago. I’d really like a new compassionate book bag to raise awareness in my school!

I would use it as a bag for school and just going out or for my sports. I would also use it for groceries my groceries and whenever I go shopping. When I go to concerts or to my friends house I would pack all my stuff in it. But most of all, when people ask me where I got it, I would refer them to peta.

I would use it everywhere I went, no matter where I was going. By wearing the bag on my shoulder, I would let people know that I stand up for animals and refuse to take part in any cruelty inflicted on them. They have hearts and feelings and they deserve to have rights too.

I was recently thinking that I wanted a cute animal rights tote to carry groceries with and this is perfect! I’d also use it to carry leafleting supplies; so when I’m walking somewhere to post leaflets passing cars and people will see that animals aren’t ours to use. (:

I would use it for school supplies or i would just have it with me around school or where people can see me with it. c: I have had people ask me about my Peta stickers before because i put them on my binders and they seemed interested, they have also asked me questions about being a vegetarian and what its like and i’ve told them what i know.
I know a couple of people in my school that are also vegan or vegetarians but they don’t know much about Peta. Maybe if they see me with the tote, they would ask me a few questions about it! (Either way, i’m still telling them about Peta, HAH). So, yeah. c:

I would use this tote everyday and take it to school. This will show everyone the reasons why animals shouldn’t be used and that animals aren’t for us to take advantage of, they have rights too. Through this it could change the way people think and feel towards animals.

I would use this tote bag absolutely anyway I possibly could! Going to work I carry my uniform I would put it in there. I would wear it to school to carry all my books. I would bring it when I was purchasing anything from a store like groceries, makeup, clothes, etc. I would put my arts and crafts in it while I was going to a friends house. I would also add many buttons to it to improve the message I am trying to send. I usually travel everywhere by foot so I would have it with me at all times. I also help organize protests so I would carry stickers, leaflets, signs and another literature I will have for that day. I hope I win this contest because I feel like the message will be sent a lot clearer from a Peta2 Youth Adviser.

I would wear this bag to school every day, hoping to provoke thoughtful questions from curious passerby about animal rights. I would deck out the bag with all my Peta2 pins and look awesome and aware.
I would always reveal the front part outward, so people could clearly read the powerful words <3

Ok, first of all, it would spread the message that animals shouldn’t be eaten, second of all, because you are using less plastic, and you are reusing that bag for anything you want. Less plastic, less trash, less trash, more environment for the animals

I would use this tote to put my piano lesson items in, so that way when I go, everyone will see it! (: Then, i would have my mom use this as her grocery bag when she buys me vegan food to emphasize the point. To be completely honest with you I would take this thing everywhere! haha. I would DEFINITELY use it at sleepovers, it’s a great conversation starter! I actually got my friend to go vegetarian by talking about peta2.! I would also use it to carry my leaflets and stickers when I petition or decorate. <3

I would use this tote at my school, as my backpack. I would pretty much rub it in the faces of my friends (heehee), and store some leaflets and such in it. I would make a pretty good point as to what it says on the bag, by introducing it to everyone! Saying things like, “Hey… What do you think of my new bag?” That way, everyone would have to take at least a quick scan over of what it says. :3

First of all it is advertisement so just carrying it around for one is a start. I would carry vegan food in it, stuff for my cat in it, and sometimes I bring gifts to other animals. I’m like Santa Claus except I don’t force reindeer to pull my vehicle. XD
