ADOPT A COW Our ‘Adopt a Cow’ option is for those who would like to contribute to the ongoing maintenance and health of an individual cow. The cost for this will vary from farm to farm or sanctuary depending on factors such as cows need to eat hay, and whether caretakers are volunteers or paid workers. The average cost for maintaining one cow is calculated to be $250 per month. If you select this option you will receive photos and updates about the cow(s) being cared for in your name. If you are interested in sponsoring one or more cows in this way, please select the name of the cow and you can set up an automatic monthly donation for the cow(s) you would like to adopt. At the Veda Foundation we have a family of cows from many different farms and sanctuaries to adopt. Here are a few cows who would like to meet you.
