Introducing Vegan Bootcamp - A Simplified Transition to Veganism
Vegans are all too used to telling someone about their lifestyle and being met with the classic, “I could never be vegan, it’s way too hard” response. Thanks to our latest project in partnership with Peta, vegans now have the perfect answer to this, VeganBootcamp.org. The site is an entirely free course-based challenge designed to provide all the information you need to easily transition to a vegan lifestyle.
Get Involved With Our New Animal Rights Map
Getting involved in a local animal rights group is a great way to connect with other vegans and make a difference in your community. But you may not know where to start or what groups are around you. That’s why we created the Animal Rights Map!
A Quick Update on Vegan Bootcamp!
We haven't talked too much about Vegan Bootcamp since it's 2.0 release, so we figured we'd do a quick update and give you some insight on how it's doing! 🥰
Online Activism: 5 Minutes 5 Vegans

It's Been Awhile: New Projects, Advisors, and More!
Hey everyone! It's been a while - we're not so great at keeping our blog up to date, but we promise on the flip-side we have been doing great with our organizations activism!
2019 Vegan Hacktivists Year Review!
Wow - It's only been a year since we started and I'm already so incredibly proud of our team and the accomplishments we've made since then. We've all been really excited about making this post for a while now because we really wanted to see how much ground we've covered as an animal rights organization in just a short amount of time.
Announcing the New Vegan Hacktivists Blog!
Today is the day we're launching our new blog! We'll mainly use this as a tool to keep everyone up to date with our projects, announce new ones, and general organizational blog posts - but we also plan to have some fun and do interviews with our volunteers, activists, and advisors!
Our Newest Project: VeganBootcamp.org
We're so so happy to announce that we've released Vegan Bootcamp! It took several months longer than we thought it would but we're so proud of what we accomplished among the countless of volunteers that put work into bringing this project to reality.
New Website, New Teams, New Projects!
We've added a services section, projects section, and a few other neat pages that expand on who we are and what we do. The team members page is not fully filled out yet (we have a lot more people to put up!) but other then that we're really proud of what we have done!
Vegan Campout and Other Updates!
We just got back from Vegan Campout 2019 in the UK, our project leaders were able to meet for the first time in person and we were able to make several new connections with different activists and organizations as a result!
We're Challenging Challenge 22+ 👊
It's the website that everyone recommends. It's the first thing that pops into your mind when you're sending someone a link to go Vegan. We want a piece of that real-estate because we think we have a better take on it - something more effective, self-sustaining, and rewarding.
