The NNHS Ethical Eats Club (formerly Animal Rights and Wellness Club) promotes consumer awareness, more specifically in the area of eating ethically, through raising awareness and moving to action. We aim to protect the environment, to help end the brutality of the meat industry, and to improve the lives and health of people. Our key issues are vegetarianism and veganism, organic food, sustainable agriculture, locally grown produce and fair trade, and we always are open to other ways to make eating more ethical.

By participating in the EEC, you will:

Learn a lot about many issues
Gain experience with advocacy
Have something great to put on your college application
Eat lots of really delicious food!

This year, we have lots of fun activities and projects planned!

Attend the Boston Vegetarian Food Festival
Get better, healthier, and more delicious food for the schools lunches
Organize an Ethical Eating Day at school
Celebrate International Animal Rights Day
Hold assemblies with the Environmental Club on Earth Day
Give presentations at middle schools

And more...

Our meeting schedule is not yet official and me may end up not having regular weekly meetings but instead have meetings as necessary in which case we will notify you of important information. Meetings are not mandatory and we will send out an email whenever there is an update or important information.

New Blog, New Name!

Hey Everyone,

Welcome to our new blog! We're excited to announce that we have just decided to change our official club name from the Newton North High School Animal Rights and Welfare Club to the Ethical Eats Club. We believe that under our new name, we appeal to more of the NNHS community and underline more important issues! We aim to address more topics under consumer information and the food industry. Our new name not only overlays animal rights, but also includes environmental issues, sustainability, organic food, health, and more. We will be posting all sorts of news, alerts, updates, and important information you will want to know here so check back often! We appreciate any feedback, Thanks!
