Children who attend Rise Up Get Loud with their parents will also have access to cool activities and games. Rise Up Get Loud will furthermore provide parents with the necessary knowledge and tools to keep their kids safe from online predators.
Unfortunately, a significant rise in human trafficking is attributed to predators going online. They generally make contact with unsuspecting children via social media, video game chatrooms, and other online apps.
Also attending Rise Up Get Loud will be Tim Ballard, the founder of OUR.
(The origin story of how Ballard got involved in the fight against human trafficking serves as the focal point of Sound of Freedom.)
Get involved today
Success in the fight against human trafficking is only possible if people get involved and then do their part to raise awareness and protect people from predators.
Right now, 28 million individuals worldwide remain stuck in the dark world of human trafficking. Of this 28 million, about 25% of the victims are children.
