August is Legacy Confirmation Month at PETA. If you’ve already included PETA in your legacy plans, or intend to do so in the future, we invite you to let us know and help ensure your legacy of compassion for animals lives on.

After a severe allergic reaction to a conventional lip balm, Dr. Ann Nguyen-Chung set out to create something better, simple, plant-based personal care products rooted in transparency and trust. As the founder of Hippotanicals, a proud PETA Business Friend, she’s turning a personal health challenge into a compassionate mission that prioritizes people, animals, and the planet. From minimalist formulas to biodegradable packaging, her work shows that kinder choices can be both effective and accessible.
