Step 01 of 06
This Is
for You.
You're a Vegan, a business owner building something plant-based, or someone who wants to fund the infrastructure that makes this movement grow.
This is for you.
Step 02 of 06
The Vegan Community
Is Fractured.
People are doing incredible work all over the place, but no one is speaking to each other. We're not growing together - we're growing separately.
Step 03 of 06
Why This
Exists.
Vegans Explore is the platform for the Vegan movement. We build the infrastructure for cities: a directory so you can find what's happening, events so you know where to show up, job boards so you can work in this movement, and volunteer opportunities so you can contribute where it matters.
We've done this for 10 years in South Florida and Central Florida - canvassing, connecting, showing up at events, hosting festivals. Now we're doing it with the technology infrastructure we didn't have before, so it's sustainable and can grow.
We're building this to support businesses that are struggling, nonprofits that need backing, and individuals who can't find what they need.
Step 04 of 06
500+ Organizations.
Years on
the Ground.
We've worked with over 500 organizations since launching.
Small potlucks. Expos. Multiple festivals. We've worked behind the scenes at some of the bigger festivals, covered events through our content, and went into restaurants to spotlight them.
We kept the community plugged in and learned through trial and error what works and what doesn't.
Here's what we know: for this to work, it needs to be a movement people believe will grow and stick around. You do that by creating something people want to back and support.
That was impossible until now. The technology infrastructure we have today means all the work that agents can do gets done by agents, and the relationship building - going into restaurants, making real connections - gets focused on by our members.

How We Work.
Free to Join.
The platform is free to join.
Once you join, you get a dashboard that shows you exactly what you need to know: opportunities to get involved, ways to level up, and a points system you can use to support other businesses. You can donate your points so they can use them for marketing services. You can launch your own projects. You have access to the full LESARUSS ecosystem.
You never have to guess what's going on when it comes to Veganism in your city or any city. As we grow, so does what we do in your city, and you'll have a front row seat because you'll be making it happen.
The points economy: If you want a monthly passport, you get points every month for $11. You can also get points one-off. Use points to support a business, unlock a service, or launch your own project.
We're a nonprofit under LESARUSS Foundation, so you can make donations at any time.
