  • Feeling sluggish, bloated, gassy, and like your gut is staging a full-blown rebellion? That’s #dairy. Most people can’t actually digest lactose properly, so when you load up on cheesy, creamy Thanksgiving everything, your body basically throws its hands up and starts a riot in your intestines. The result? Bloating, fatigue, brain fog, and a digestive system that’s doing interpretive dance instead of its actual job. Don’t worry — it’s not you. It’s the dairy. It’s always the dairy. Visit switch4good.org to ditch dairy and begin your journey to live your most vibrant life 🌱
  • If 10 million (of the nearly 30 million) children in the National School Lunch Program choose a dairy‑free life, they could potentially save the lives of up to 590 million cows over the course of an average American lifetime. That’s why the FISCAL Act is so crucially important: it will give millions of children the dairy‑free choice they need and dramatically cut future demand for cow’s milk. This is exactly the future we’re driving toward with The Justice Tour 👇 Starting in 2026, we’ll roll up to schools across the United States to educate students, teachers, and faculty about how to thrive dairy‑free. By reaching kids early—before unhealthy habits are set—we can create ripple effects that last a lifetime. It’s far easier to inspire a 7‑year‑old than to change a 55‑year‑old’s eating habits, and the impact multiplies with every single classroom we visit! If you believe kids are the key to saving cows, this tour will be an absolute game changer. Visit our Justice Tour page (switch4good.org/justice-tour) and see how our innovative education tour will fuel this movement. Your support will power our educational vehicle, staff, and immersive science‑based experiences that open hearts and minds. Together, we’ll turn free milk choice for kids in the lunchroom into freedom for cows. switch4good.org/justice-tour

  • Some dairy products clearly fall into the ultra-processed category—spray cheese, whipped toppings, artificially flavored coffee creamers, and ice creams packed with stabilizers and preservatives. These foods bear little resemblance to cow’s milk, as they undergo significant alterations, including the addition of emulsifiers and artificial colors to enhance appearance, taste, texture, and shelf life. But while it’s easy to see these products as processed, what about dairy products deemed more “natural?” You need to visit the link in our linktree to read more and learn how you can ditch dairy 🔗 switch4good.org
  • THE FISCAL ACT HAS PASSED IN THE SENATE!! 🙌 🎉 Today, the U.S. Senate unanimously voted to pass a historic piece of legislation spearheaded by @Switch4Good founder and vegan Olympic medalist @veganolympian Dotsie Bausch, as well as @animalwellnessaction and @centerforahumaneeconomy President Wayne Pacelle. The landmark legislation will afford public school children the option of non-dairy milk with school lunches, and empower schools to offer a variety of plant milk to students in the lunch line for the first time in the nearly 80-year history of the National School Lunch Program (NSLP). Attesting to the remarkable and bipartisan nature of the bill, it was also approved unanimously by the U.S. Senate Agriculture Committee in early June, their first such action in three years. The bill is an amended version of S. 222, the Whole Milk for Healthy Kids Act, which incorporates provisions from the FISCAL Act that Bausch and Pacelle championed through Congress. Prior to the bill’s passing, under the current guidelines of the NSLP, cow’s milk was mandatorily given to public school children, despite the fact that an estimated 15 million kids participating in the NSLP are lactose intolerant. The bill effectively eliminates the cow’s milk mandate in the NSLP, thereby offering kids a healthy plant-based alternative to cow’s milk, supporting their freedom of choice. We owe you a MASSIVE thank you!! Thank you for standing with us and helping move the FISCAL Act through the Senate. Your support, dedication, and belief in this work made all the difference. This victory belongs to all of us 👊
