The Relentless Campaign

The Relentless Campaign is teaming up with A21 to fight against slavery. Yes, it still exists. Today thousands of children are sold as sex slaves and forced into the world where humans are peddled like drugs. Together we can change this. That's why the Ground Floor's Relentless Campaign is supporting A21 -- to change the lives of these children and women from what is into what can be.

Who is A21?

We are a group of girls and women who are commmited to pursue JUSTICE, as God has entitled every person he has created to a life of FREEDOM. Unfortunately, we realize this is not the case, as millions of people world wide are trafficked into the sex slavery industry. We will stand up and fight this injustice with RELENTLESS faith, as we join together as a community to raise funds and awareness, realizing that we cannot just sit back and be silent.

Sex trafficking is a modern day form of slavery in which a commercial sex act is induced by force, fraud, or coercion, or in which the person induced to perform such an act is under the age of 18 years. 2 MILLION CHILDREN each year are victim to trafficking.

Children as young as THREE years old are forced to serve up to FORTY men a day. It is the world's SECOND LARGEST CRIMINAL ENTERPRISE after drugs. Children are more in demand then weapons. 600,000 to 800,000 people each year are trafficked across international borders 80 percent of these victims are female. 50 percent of these girls are minors. This heinous crime brings in around $32 billion a year.
