Our mission is to expose and help eradicate modern-day slavery. Human trafficking inflicts untold suffering on all its victims. It deprives them of their most basic and unalienable rights: life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. We are passionate about bringing this issue into a conversation at Columbia. Our mission is threefold: we hope, through our presence on campus, to increase the visibility of this issue at Columbia; to inspire conversations about what we can do to address it; to raise funds to support national and international organizations that are devoted to helping victims and perpetrating traffickers; and finally, to pave the way for meaningful legislative change.
