What Race to Rescue Is:

Race to Rescue is an annual campaign where IJM champions and supporters race to send rescue to millions of children, women and men who are trapped in slavery around the world. Each year, race teams and individual participants across the nation run, walk, bike, climb, MOVE to bring an end to modern-day slavery.

Why you’re doing it:

I first learned about human trafficking __ years ago when [insert: your story of how you learned about human trafficking. Include here how and why you felt so personally moved by this issue].
