Welcome to Challenge 22 Community!
If you are part of an animal rights organization and want to help new vegans sustain this lifestyle, this is the place for you.
Challenge 22 Community is a collaboration project for animal rights organizations and activist groups, with the goal of guiding you while you establish your own version of Challenge 22 in your area.
What is Challenge 22?
Challenge 22 is a free, online program for trying veganism for 22 days. The project is supervised by registered dietitians. More than 1 million people from all over the world have participated in the project since its launch in March 2014.
While similar programs around the world are based on vegan starter kits and email guides, Challenge 22 is an interactive program that offers a unique combination of group support and personal mentoring. The Challenge 22 program is proven to be highly effective.
Another key element of the program is its appeal to volunteers — we have trained over 1,200 volunteers and we provide extensive training and ongoing supervision for all volunteers. This allows us to offer comprehensive support on a regular basis.
Bring the Challenge to your country!
We are happy to share our knowledge and expertise to help you launch a Challenge adapted to your country and culture.
We are interested in forming collaborations that benefit all parties involved. We know how precious your time is, as is ours. We are interested in forming collaborations with organizations that believe that vegan retainment is one of the main fields they should commit to, and consider social support as a significant tool for achieving this goal.
Our Vision

Working for the animals with the support of the amazing Challenge 22 team is a true privilege. Their experts have shown us ongoing support, allowing us to keep spreading the vegan message through our local vegan challenge. We are especially grateful for their kindness, patience, and encouragement. From the Challenge 22 team to us, to our participants, and then to the people around them — it creates a ripple effect of positive change. Working with Challenge 22 has been a wonderful experience, and we’re excited to keep going, helping bring veganism even further.
Udruga Pobjede, Croatia Working with the dedicated team at Challenge 22 has been an absolute pleasure. Their support and expertise have been very helpful in advancing our society’s mission to spread veganism and educate people about the vegan lifestyle. What truly stands out is their approach – while they empower us to lead our project independently, they are always available with great advice and a lot of knowledge! We are very grateful for their contributions and look forward to continuing our work together to make a meaningful impact and continue spreading veganism.
