It's annoying, I know - someone hassling you for money. You know what? I knew we were running out of money for our anti-trafficking work. I've known it for a long time - and yet I waited until the last possible moment before running a fundraising campaign. Why?...

I enjoy surprising people, giving them a little more than they were expecting. Over the past two weeks, our award-winning documentary, 'Sisters for Sale', has been surprising a lot of people - including many of the people who worked on it. A little surprise...

We've reached over 142,500 people - via Facebook, Imgur, Instagram, Twitter, and email - since our 2019 fundraising campaign launched last week. It's a modest achievement compared to some of our previous fundraising efforts. (On 1st November 2016, for example, we...

Two days ago, we released a special sneak-peek of 'Sisters for Sale' to our supporters, ahead of the global launch on 16th May. 'Sisters for Sale' is a unique story with the power to make a very real difference against the global human trafficking crisis. Because of...
