A vegan who inspires you and why:
-The person’s background in brief: things like where they are from, when they moved to the city or town where they live now and what brought them to their current city or town. It could also include things like what they studied and what their current job is, or any other interesting details.
-Something the person does that is inspirational to others: this could be contributions like volunteering, engaging in an inspirational job activity, pursuing a hobby, engaging in self-expression, and caring for loved ones and/or members of the community. How did they get involved in this? What do they do? What does it entail? What is it like? Who do they participate with? What tools and resources do they use? What are the outcomes? Why do they do this? Can others do this too and, if so, how? What is most inspirational about this person?
-Something inspirational that happened to the person. Are there any stories that stand out?
What has the person learned? Are there any other words of wisdom to share?
What hopes does the person have for the future?
