Join us on January 24 at 7:30 PM ET for a special Compassion Consortium Film Night and Discussion re: “Veganuary’s Celebration of its 10th Anniversary, as we look back at the past decade and reflect on the triumphs and challenges over the years. We will view Veganuary’s 22-minute documentary, as our guests from Veganuary explore impact and expansion around the world since launching in 2013. There will be a Q&A following the documentary.
Veganuary is a non-profit organization that encourages people worldwide to try vegan for January and beyond. Millions of people have signed up to our one-month vegan pledge since 2014, and in 2023 alone more than 1,610 new vegan products and menu options were launched in our key campaign countries.
Throughout the year, Veganuary encourages and supports people and businesses alike to move to a plant-based diet as a way of protecting the environment, preventing animal suffering, and improving the health of millions of people.
Over the next five years, Veganuary aims to make powerful strides toward a world where vegan is the norm rather than the exception.
Wendy Matthews is the International Head of Partnerships and Expansion at Veganuary, leading the globalization of the Veganuary campaign. She previously oversaw the nonprofit’s campaign in the US from its launch in January 2020. She has been actively involved in the vegan/animal-protection movement for over a decade, previously having worked with Farm Sanctuary as Senior Manager of Engagement and Social Impact. Wendy is passionate about creating resources that help people live in alignment with their values and supporting businesses in shifting towards plant-based to meet the rise in consumer consciousness.
