What challenge could you take on?
How far will you go to help bring freedom?
Champions around Asia have gone to great lengths to bring freedom. From running the Paris Marathon, to cycling 360km – close to twice the coastline of Singapore – to climbing Mount Pinatubo – the possibilities to bring freedom are endless!
Featured fundraising initiatives
Partner with Amanda Griffin Jacob
Amanda, IJM Ambassador and Lead Influencer, actively leveraged her status as an influencer to make online sexual exploitation of children (OSEC) an issue of national and global concern.
During the COVID-19 lockdown, she rallied her network of influencers for IJM’s Mother’s Day campaign, #Don’tJustGiveFlowers, and the #ReadyToListen #ReadyToFight campaigns to raise awareness and rally support to combat OSEC.
Climb for Freedom with Women on a Mission (WOAM)
17 women from Singapore travelled to Manila, the Philippines in partnership with WOAM to learn about IJM’s work combating the online sexual exploitation of children.
Today, we are working together to raise awareness and funds to ensure the safety and restoration of vulnerable children in the Philippines.

01. Get Started
Setting up your fundraising campaign is easy. Decide what you’re going to do and pick a campaign name. Then choose a photo and share a little bit about IJM on your page.
Top tip: Get personal―tell people what fundraising for IJM means to you and why you want to be part of ending slavery in a lifetime.
Make sure to download our fundraising guide below to kick start your fundraiser, then launch your page.
02. Share
Once your campaign is set up- you’re ready to share with friends and family―whether that’s social media, emails, Whatsapp or good old fashioned face-to-face or Zoom! Why not get creative by making a film or shooting some photos?
Top tip: tag @IJM on social media so that we can see what you’re doing and like or share too.
03. See Freedom
The work of IJM is only possible because of supporters like you. Every single penny you raise will go towards the fight against slavery and injustice. Thank you for being a modern day abolitionist!
