Join THL- Philly for a peaceful protest against fast-food giant, McDonald's. This will take place in front of the McDonald's by Rittenhouse Square on 17th and Walnut. *Public transportation is highly recommended*

Dress Attire: Business/casual preferred, jeans, skirts, etc.

▪️ About our protest

No need to bring anything—we'll provide all the materials you need (posters and pamphlets)

Our protest style is professional and silent. We will line the public sidewalk outside of McDonald’s with alternating signs and maintain a serious composure as customers and tourists pass. We will have specific people on the ends of the protest line designated to answer any questions.

We will all be holding our signs level to each other with alternating images to maintain professionalism.

A volunteer or two will be leafleting with pamphlets about our campaign.

We'll have a photographer taking photos of the protest and we'll go on FB live during the event.

Things we legally cannot do (as a heads up): block the sidewalk so that it interferes with traffic.

Feel free to contact me with any questions at

▪️About our campaign

This campaign against McDonald’s is a part of our larger 88% Campaign.

We are asking McDonald’s to publicly commit to a meaningful welfare policy for the chickens in their supply chain, who currently have no protections in any way. Burger King, Starbucks, Chipotle, TGI Fridays, Red Robin, Subway, and other major restaurant chains have all adopted a meaningful welfare policy. The time is NOW for McDonald’s to do the same! You can learn the details about the campaign at: https://www.imnotlovinit.com/

We sincerely hope you join the Philly community for this peaceful demo which will greatly help MILLIONS of animals!

For The Animals,
