End Slavery in Our Lifetime | International Justice Mission

Ending slavery in our lifetime.

Bring freedom to 40 million people living in slavery worldwide.

Slavery still exists all over the world.

Many people believe slavery ended long ago. This couldn’t be further from the truth. There are more people trapped in slavery today than ever before. Together we can set people free one by one.

Slave owners value money over human life.

The chains of modern slavery are violence, deception and fear. Oppressors steal human beings and abuse them for their gain. Corrupt or broken law enforcement means that many traffickers have no fear of being caught. Together we will disrupt their business model forever.

People in slavery have no choice—but we do.

Imagine having your freedom stolen. Being forced to work back-breaking hours for no pay. Everyone has goals, dreams and talents. But not everyone is free. Today, you can send rescue.

Who We Are

We are the largest international anti-slavery organisation in the world. We’re a team of undercover investigators, lawyers, social workers, advocates—and you.
