2025 Charity Partner – 30 for Freedom

30 FOR FREEDOM

Modern slavery, including the trafficking of men, women, and children, is the human rights issue of our time. As many as 4 million women and children are caught in sexual slavery in our world today. A young girl can be sold for as little as $150 and will often be forced to service at least 10 customers per day, or over 3,000 a year. 
 
30 for Freedom is a movement that exists to end sex trafficking.  Our goal is to RAISE (awareness and funding), RESCUE (victims from the grip of bondage) and RESTORE (providing victims with the necessary care and training to thrive).
