Stand For Freedom | 27 Hours • 27 Million | International Justice Mission

March 5 - 15, 2013

Stand for Freedom started with a few small groups of passionate university students and grew into a national anti-slavery movement. We stood for 27 hours for the 27 million in slavery today—spreading the word that slavery is real, but together we can end it!

“You may choose to look the other way but you can never say again that you did not know.”

William Wilberforce

Stand for Freedom was a huge success. The stories are incredible—and you should be so proud!

By joining with colleges, high schools, churches, community groups and individuals all over the world, you’re helping IJM bring a new future to men, women and children living in slavery and violence.

On behalf of those who will be free because you took a stand — thank you.
