S2E4: Seeing Animals as Individuals Saves Lives

Your Nonprofit Life

Chay Neal is the Executive Director of Animal Liberation Queensland in Queensland Australia.

Animal Liberation Queensland exists to protect all animals from abuse, exploitation and suffering; to foster respectful and compassionate community attitudes towards animals; and to promote veganism as the most ethical and ecologically sustainable lifestyle.

During this interview, Chay reveals when he made the decision to go Vegan (he started at a younger age than you might expect) and how love for his first pet ignited something in him that turned into a lifelong passion of advocacy for all living creatures.

As we do in all our podcasts, we explore Chay’s journey into the nonprofit sector which began with volunteering and protests. He also shares his move from volunteer to board member and then what it was like transitioning from a long-time board member position to being the organization’s first paid staff.

Chay explains the organization’s strategic use of storytelling to help open the minds and soften the hearts of lawmakers inspiring significant change in the animal rights movement.
