You can Elevate Freedom for women exploited in some of the darkest places in our world! This family-friendly campaign is for anyone who believes that ALL people should be FREE from trafficking and exploitation. Not Abandoned invites you to hike, walk, run, or roll your way to personal health this Summer all while also supporting the health of the women and children we work with at our Freedom and Ability Centers in Thailand, Spain, and Morocco.

Elevate Freedom is a 2-month challenge that invites you track your activity miles completed and have your community cheer along their support through donations to your campaign. No matter if you’re an elite hiker scaling Mt. Rainer or plan on conquering daily walks around your neighborhood, you are welcomed and wanted, and YOU can make a difference. With every mile you log, you will be actively empowering a woman to take her own steps forward into freedom—steps that she now doesn’t have to take alone! Registration opens June 23^rd and activity tracking runs all of July and August, or from the day you register, so, register early and utilize those extra 2 weeks of tracking time!

This year our goal is to raise $20,000 for Not Abandoned’s expansion of their work in Spain and Thailand. Every dollar raised will go towards these fields that provide safe places for women recovering from exploitation. Here they plug into a healthy family of support with trauma care and employment opportunities that provide stability, empowerment, and freedom.

It takes a community to sustain freedom. Elevate Freedom is not a solo venture. Grab some friends or family and form a team to participate together! There is no limit to team sizes so invite, invite, invite, others to join you for your best chance at winning team prizes! We’d also like to challenge you to ask 25 friends to donate $25 towards your campaign. Just as our Freedom Center students can’t make it out of exploitation alone, we need our greater community to step up in support of this cause too. Be bold on her behalf!

Special note: For those of you who are participating with mobility differences, heart disease, cancer, depression, or an additional challenge, you will earn 1.5 miles for every 1 mile completed. Simply reference our Equity and Activity Conversion Chart on the official campaign page and manually log your activities as completed. Elevate Freedom is for everyone-- equity and accessibility matters!

Together we can bring freedom to women and children who are being exploited, all while also investing in your own health. Because everyone was born to roam free!
