INTERESTED IN SPONSORSHIP?
Thank you! Sponsors like you are what make our mission possible. In order to reach more youth and vulnerable individuals, we need to constantly create new training resources and public awareness campaigns, sponsor community events, travel to conduct private seminars and keynote speeches, plus many other tasks which rely on a budget that comes solely from donations and sponsors like you.
In return for your support, we’d like to offer various opportunities to market your brand and logo and show the community that you and/or your business stands for human worth, dignity and have joined the fight against human trafficking and exploitation. Please evaluate the different levels of sponsorship and consider how you or your business could contribute to Stomp Out Human Trafficking.
Email us at info@stopthemovement.org to get involved.
WHY PARTICIPATE?
It takes strong allies, community members and athletes like you to stand up for the dignity and worth of all humans. Stop The Movement believes that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, so that once our community knows better, we’ll do better.
When we stop turning a blind eye to that fact that humans are purchasing other humans for sex, and exploiting vulnerable children online for pleasure and profit, we have no other option but to take action. It is no longer ok to know about it, and not do anything – the time for standing up is now! Running this race is the first step towards taking a stand against human trafficking and exploitation.
