Worldwide Vegan Bake Sale

For activists who prefer to use sweets as their tactic of choice, the hugely popular Worldwide Vegan Bake Sale will return for its fourth year from April 21 to 29. Each year, participants from around the globe hold bake sales during the prescribed time period and donate the funds they raise to charities of their choice. Up to 150 individual bake sales usually take place during the week, and a grand total of $100,000 has been raised during the first three years of the event. The bake sale has garnered major media attention in years past from CNN, which applauded the simplicity and effectiveness of the program.
