It’s been 4 weeks since this petition was launched, and there has been no response from The Gentle Barn’s Board of Directors. Nearly 800 people have added their voices to the call for change, and we will not be ignored.

Keep the momentum going by letting the board know that we’re not going anywhere!

We are asking folks who feel comfortable to send the following email to the Finance Committee (marc.hernandez@compass.com):

“Dear Marc, Alec, Martin, Claudia and John,

I am a donor/volunteer/visitor (choose all that apply) of The Gentle Barn, and I am writing to express my deep concern with the lack of accountability, transparency, and vet oversight within the organization. Alongside nearly 800 others, I signed the Change.org petition, and we are waiting for your response. We invite you to publicly respond via social media, The Gentle Barn’s website, or as a comment on the petition. The animals are counting on you.

Kindly,
[Your name]”

1. Alec Pedersen - Board Chairman
