Mission & Vision

Our Mission
We are a nonprofit advancing food equity and nutrition security by working at the intersection of public health, education, and policy. We start with dairy because of its outsized impact on human health and the injustice it perpetuates in marginalized communities. We equip individuals, universities, and governments with the tools to make evidence-based, systemic change for good.
Our Vision
A world where compassion replaces exploitation, where animals and people thrive, free from profit-driven harm in our food system.
Guiding Principles
Proud to Be Women-Led
Switch4Good proudly operates as a women-led organization—from our board directors to our executive team. We also support other women-led businesses and organizations leading the charge to a more compassionate and sustainable world. We believe certain skills—which are often overlooked in today’s society—are essential for strong leadership. The best leaders are great listeners. They are empathetic, strong communicators who are motivated by challenges and adept at multitasking. They check their egos and focus on teamwork and collaboration with high levels of emotional intelligence. These skills are woven into the fabric of being women and our leadership team. At Switch4Good, we stand up for the truth, fight for justice, and are fueled with perennial optimism to create a world that is better tomorrow than it was today.
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
We value diversity, inclusion, and varying perspectives to ensure our organization maintains the highest levels of respect for every employee, consultant, and individual we communicate with. We believe everyone deserves to feel safe and heard, and we are committed to upholding a workplace environment where this is the norm.
Our Core Values
Switch4Good promises to uphold these essential core values in all that we do—from our internal communications to our public-facing campaigns. Each member of our staff has expressed their own experience with these values to illustrate how we integrate them into our work every single day.

Our Story
Sparked by a misleading dairy-industry ad, Olympic medalist Dotsie Bausch united fellow dairy-free Olympians to launch a counter-commercial, and that single act of defiance grew into Switch4Good. Our organization is now a global, women-led nonprofit helping athletes and advocates thrive through the power of a dairy-free life.
