“At Lighthouse Farm Sanctuary we believe that every individual has the right to freedom. Freedom from pain, freedom from fear, and freedom from oppression. We provide those with the most heartbreaking stories hope and the promise of the freedom to be themselves. A promise of companionship, of love, and of care. Our sanctuary is home to 200 non-human animals who have seen the very worst of humanity and every day they amaze us with their profound abilities to love and to be loved, even after the tragedies they have endured. Our goal is to share their stories with the community and bring about positive change in the way they are viewed by society. By fostering beautiful, meaningful bonds between people and the animals they may see as “food” or as “things” we are changing the future for the individuals who mean so much to us. People who visit and volunteer at the sanctuary often comment on the unique sense of peace they feel when being here. All of our residents cohabitate peacefully and have strong friendships with one another. They know they are safe and loved. We like to call it a kind of magic created by love, trust, and understanding.”

“A gentle cow munches contentedly in a shaded corner of rolling green pasture overlooking the sparkling Pacific. Goats frolic, deer bask in the warm sun, pigs roll happily in the mud, and a pair of inseparable donkeys anticipate sweet nibbles of carrots and apples. Friendly chickens cluck and turkeys gobble, while ducks and geese splash in ponds. Rabbits and guinea pigs scamper through cool gardens. Exotic flowers bloom. And cats by the dozen greet visitors with expectant purrs. This is Leilani Farm Sanctuary—an island paradise for rescued animals where compassion for all living beings reigns. Located on eight lush acres of pure love, this all-volunteer, non-profit sanctuary on Maui saves animals destined for slaughter or orphaned after hunters took their mothers and educates the community on the humane treatment of animals. Tour the farm and meet the Leilani Farm Sanctuary ambassadors, and consider sponsoring one or more of the animals who touch your heart and help us continue our mission of providing hope and education, one life at a time.”

Video: “With infectious enthusiasm and heartfelt compassion, Father Frank Mann, a Catholic priest for 35 years, describes his recent awakening to the cruelty and injustice endured by animals used for food. Already involved in rescuing cats from the streets of his New York City neighborhood, he finds himself challenged by a question posed on a freeway billboard: Why do we care about some animals and eat others? Father Frank is electrified by the realization that we can choose to abandon this unnecessary violence. His mission, “to be a champion of healing, hope and justice,” was inspired by visionaries such as Dorothy Day and Thomas Merton, whom he felt showed both kindness and moral courage in the face of injustice. To their vision of a more equitable and peaceful world, he believes the time has come to add care and respect for all sentient beings. Father Mann and The Tablet, a Catholic newspaper, hosted the New York City premiere of Peaceable Kingdom – The Journey Home, Tribe of Heart’s award-winning documentary about farmers who had a change of heart about animals.”
