My Tribute To Ingrid Newkirk
May 7, 2010
Name: Ingrid Newkirk
Type: Tribute (for the living)
To Honor: Individual(s)
Location: , United States

Ingrid Newkirk is the founder of PETA which she started and it is now a largest non-profit animal rights organization in the entire world.  She also wrote a book called "One Can Make a Difference" which was so inspiring and moving.  PETA has had so many victories and saved the lives of thousands of animals.  I am sincerely grateful and thank Ingrid Newkirk everyday for all her animal rights work and for creating an organization that gives me a way of being active and having a voice in the cause.
