BE HERS Was founded by a group of girlfriends who were horrified upon hearing of the size and scope of modern day slavery, and felt compelled to do more.
On Saturday the 3rd August at the 2nd Be Her Freedom Sunshine Coast event we had many women turn up to show their support for this cause, to do what they could to abolish human trafficking in their lifetime. Guests were entertained by Ellen Reed, Renee Bazley (Dance Piece), Silk Acrobat Kayleigh from Absolute Aerials, at the event organised by Katie Thompson and the amazing team of volunteers.

Through our fundraising with Be Hers, we continue to be amazed at the generosity of those across our community, our nation and beyond. Together we continue to raise much needed funds and awareness regarding the issue of human trafficking and the need for this to be brought to the forefront of the world’s attention. While we may not be able to save all 27 million held in captivity today, we are determined to not ignore the cry of the ONE and do all we can to bring her freedom.

Organisations Be Hers supports
According to the The A21 Campaign, there are more slaves in the world today than at any other point in human history. Men, women and children are being exploited for manual and sexual labor against their will. The average age of a trafficked victim is just 12 years. Human trafficking by definition is the illegal trade of human beings, and is the world’s fastest growing criminal industry, affecting every nation across the globe.

Every thirty seconds, someone is forced into this type of bondage which is nothing short of modern day slavery. With only 1-2% of victims ever rescued and only 1 in 100,000 traffickers ever convicted, The A21 Campaign stands to abolish this injustice through prevention, protection, prosecution and strategic partnerships across the globe.

The A21 Campaign have fourteen offices in eleven countries. They offer shelters and transit homes for victims, legal council, education in schools and continue to form strategic partnerships with law enforcement, service providers and community members to meet a comprehensive set of needs for those rescued from bondage.
