World Go Vegan Week Kicks Off

October 24 marks the kick-off of World Go Vegan Week, a celebration of compassion hosted by animal-welfare organization In Defense of Animals. In honor of this year’s event, nearly 20 restaurants worldwide have already agreed to offer vegan pizza, and there’s still opportunity for other pizzerias to join. IDA also provides a list of suggestions on how to celebrate the cruelty-free holiday, such as video screenings, hosting vegan Halloween parties, starting vegan clubs, and planning compassionate Thanksgiving feasts. While the official celebration ends after October 31, IDA provides resources on its site to continue the lifestyle year-round.
