Thousands of People Took our 7-Day VegPledge

Our US VegWeek campaign, which came to a close on April 28, was a tremendous success with more than 3,500 people nationwide going veg for at least 7 days.

After this amazing week of eating vegan, I will never go back to drinking milk and eating eggs and cheese.”
