Here's an easy way to get your church, neighborhood or group of friends involved in ending slavery. Send me a message to learn more...
We hope you will find these tools will help you engage in the fight against Human Trafficking. Take a look around, you will find videos, pamphlets, posters and lots more. Here is how you can Raise Your Voice!
1. WRITE A LETTER Send a letter to your congressional delegation in DC and even to your state government.
2. MULTIPLY YOUR PENNIES Everyday changes can make huge impacts in bringing an end to slavery. By simply altering daily choices and saving money, you can partner with different organizations such as A21, IJM, FreeTheSlaves. Instead of ordering a large coffee, opt for a smaller size and save those pennies! A few small changes can help bring lasting change for a survivor! Then donate the pennies you saved to help put a stop to slavery.
3. GET SOCIAL That’s right, we want to be social with social media. Whether through Facebook or Twitter you can find ways to connect with us for updated information, as well as quickly share information with your friends and family. It’s the easiest way to spread the word, as well as to stay connected to freedom fighters all over the globe.
4. GET SMART Take some time to learn the facts about what’s happening in the world of modern slavery. When you have knowledge about the subject, you’re more likely to share with those around you. An easy way to stay informed is to visit our blog.
5. BE A BILLBOARD Not only can fashion express who you are, but it can also represent what you stand for! Several of the organizations i mentioned have online stores where you can purchase their attire and become a human billboard.
6. PRAY Human trafficking is nothing short of evil, but don’t underestimate the power of prayer.
7. READ ALL ABOUT IT Learn about what’s happening across the globe and in your own backyard. Bringing Justice monthly updates also provide innovative ways to make a difference each month.
8. SHOW YOUR STUFF Write a blog about why we should fight against human trafficking; paint a picture and display it publicly; use a sports event to raise awareness and funds; write a song or talk about human trafficking at a concert; create a short film and post it on YouTube.
9. REMEMBER THE 27 million Never forget the 27 million men, women and children that are in slavery around the world.
10. PARTY WITH A PURPOSE Host an event for the sake of freedom. From mixers to birthday parties, your gathering can show your heart for social justice. Take the opportunity to raise funds and awareness for the organizations I have mentioned throughout this website.
11. INCORPORATE THE CORPORATE Many companies are now partnering with nonprofit organizations for seasonal moments of giving back. If you work in the corporate world (or know someone who does), ask if any of the organizations I mentioned could be considered as one of the contenders for a partnership program, matching funds, or a sponsored charity.
12. MAKE VIDEOS VIRAL What if you had just as much enthusiasm for justice as you did for those funny cat videos on YouTube? Plaster your online presence with videos to grab people’s attention.
13. LINK LOCALLY Find out who’s in your area and link up with them! That’s right, there are other people in your area who share your passion in abolishing slavery. Whether it’s a local task force, or a student group that is hosting an event, join them and stand together in the fight for freedom!
14. WALK IN HER SHOES It’s been said that you don’t know someone until you walk a mile in their shoes. Maybe you can walk a mile in high heels to raise awareness. We’ve had advocates row across an ocean, climb mountains, cycle across the country, and simply organize a run for awareness. Your initiatives can make a difference through raising funds and knowledge!
15. DEMAND NO DEMAND Human trafficking leaves a footprint. The shoes you buy, the chocolate you eat, or even the parts that make up your smart phone might very well have been made by a modern-day slave. But if we don’t buy the products, there will be no demand. Take this test and see how many slaves work for you: http://slaveryfootprint.org.
16. SUPPLY THE SOLUTION The truth is that every single one of us is wired to be able to bring a truly unique solution to a very real problem occurring today. This list of 16 things does not end here. In fact, it does not end at all. The reality is that if you want to make a difference in the fight against human trafficking, you can. If there is still breath in your lungs and a beat in your heart, you have the opportunity to add to this list!
