📣 Portland Changemakers | Protest at Fred Meyer

# 🐔 🚲 Protest Animal Cruelty 📢 Calling all animal activists! Join us at at the Fred Meyer in Hollywood to urge Kroger Co. (their parent company) to make meaningful progress to eliminate battery cages ⛓️‍💥 from their supply chain. Kroger Co. abandoned their commitment to use 100% cage-free eggs globally by 2025 and continues to profit from hens kept in **cruel battery cages ⛓️‍💥 in their supply chains across the country.** Fred Meyer is a part of the problem and we won't let them hide behind their parent company. 📅 **Date**: Sunday, Aug 9 ⏰ **Time**: 10:00AM PT 📍 **Location**: Fred Meyer Hollywood West We are turning up the heat on Fred Meyer as we push them to exert pressure on their parent company, Kroger ([🔗 Kroger Doesn't Care](https://krogerdoesntcare.com/#issues)). Join us and be a part of the 🐔 chicken brigade to demand an end to cruelty in our food systems through this nationwide campaign! ## ✊ Why We're Taking Action: **⛓️‍💥 Broken Promises:** In 2016, Kroger pledged to go fully cage-free by 2025. It's 2026 and hens are still crammed in cages. **💔 Inhumane Conditions:** Chickens in battery cages have barely the space of a sheet of paper, are unable to move, unable to live, unable to spread their wings. ## 📢 What to Expect: - A peaceful and powerful public protest including the chicken brigade - The chance to speak out and make some noise for the animals - Signs provided – or bring your own creative ones - Leafleting, and engaging with the public - Opportunity to connect with fellow activists and learn more about the campaign 🧠 No protest experience needed — just a need to speak up for animals! Bring a friend, bring your energy, and let’s show this corporate chain that we won't stay silent while hens suffer. 🚨 RSVP today and be part of the growing movement for animals! 🐔🐮🐷 By attending this and any other The Humane League event, you agree to adhere to The Humane League's [Safer Spaces Policy](https://thl.link/safer-spaces) and the [event terms & conditions](https://thl.link/event-terms).
