From their instagram

“Thanks to our friends at @wooder_ice and @fox29philly we made a lot of new social media friends recently, and we figured now is the perfect time to reintroduce ourselves! PGP is the G.O.A.T non-profit with the mission of Goats for the Greater Good. When people ask us what Philly Goat Project is, we love to explain that it's really about the community of people that grows around the goats. Sure, we have 13 adorable, lovable, selfie-able goats, but it's about how we partner with them that matters. The goats act as ambassadors for our mission, which includes early literacy, environmental education, animal-assisted therapy, community wellness, and teen job skills training. One of our favorite programs we offer is our free monthly All Abilities RAMbles, which is our safe, sensory-friendly space for folks with special needs and their friends & family. If you know someone who might be interested in this event, we still have space for our next one coming up on July 16th. PGP recently filmed a segment with @whyy's @yououghtaknowtv about our animal assisted therapy programs, and we can't wait to share it when it's aired! PGP also has tons of free community events! Check out our calendar online to see where our goats will be next! Whether you're a new or old friend of PGP, we are so grateful for you, we appreciate your support, and we welcome you to our goat family.”

That's a lot of words to say "Our organization has a mascot"

Are the goats mascots if they’re the cause d’etre of the organization?
