Tinton Falls: Protest Coach for Free the Animals Friday!

Please join local PETA supporters for "Free The Animals" Friday—a powerful initiative by PETA supporters countrywide—on November 28 to protest Coach's sale of animal skins and the extreme cruelty of the leather industry by urging holiday shoppers to shop vegan. More than a billion gentle cows and other animals are killed annually for their skin worldwide. Many of these animals are forced to endure all the horrors of factory farming—including castration, branding, dehorning, and tail docking, often without any painkillers. After a lifetime of intensive confinement, these gentle animals are sometimes still conscious as they are skinned and dismembered for handbags, shoes, jackets, and other items. With the widespread availability of animal-friendly materials—including vegan leathers made from apples, mushrooms, mangoes, tree bark, and many other natural sources—it’s time for Coach to get on board by choosing style, compassion, and true sustainability. Here are the details: WHEN: Friday, November 28, 2025, 1-3 p.m. WHERE: Coach, 1 Premium Outlets Blvd #201, Tinton Falls, NJ 07753 CONTACT: Kiara at KiaraL@peta.org Meet at the Jersey Shore Premium Outlets Northwest entrance along Essex Rd (see this map: https://maps.app.goo.gl/FEFPWyKhFP9dBa6q8). Coordinates: 40°13'36.2"N 74°05'36.9"W Lots of traffic is expected, so please plan accordingly. Parking is not reserved, and carpooling is encouraged. All materials (such as posters and leaflets) will be provided. Please refrain from bringing dogs as there may not be shade or a safe place for them to lie down during the protest. Outreach events are a fun and effective way to help animals as well as meet local advocates, so be sure to invite others.
