IFA's recent work to promote veganism in Ethiopia was singled out as one of the success stories by VegFund, the organization that funded, along with Well-Fed-World, the recent Ethiopian Vegan Association Conference held in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia on December 9, 2010.

VegFund is an organization dedicated to empowering vegan activists worldwide by funding and supporting outreach activities that inspire people to choose a vegan lifestyle.
