The day has arrived—today is Giving Tuesday, and we’re asking for your support to help us protect vulnerable children from trafficking and exploitation. Joe Schmidt, our founder and board director, has committed to matching every donation for the next 24 hours only, dollar for dollar, up to $5,000. 

Joe is passionate about this mission because, as a father, he knows how much it matters to give every child the chance to grow up in a world free from exploitation. Your gift will go twice as far to empower our work on campaigns that fight child trafficking and demand accountability from those who exploit vulnerable lives—but only if you donate right now. 

Let’s take Joe up on his promise.

Double your impact

This movement has always been and will always be about you. The members of the crowd who've decided that slavery cannot and will not be tolerated. We believe that the collective of people from all walks of life, from all of the world, working together in unity will always win.” —Joe Schmidt
