Cape Town, Western Cape, South Africa The A21 Campaign Full time

WHO WE ARE:

A21 is a nonprofit organization fueled by radical hope that human beings everywhere will be rescued from bondage and completely restored. We are the abolitionists of the 21st century, and we work to free people in slavery and disrupt the demand.
For 15 years now, we've rolled up our sleeves and set our feet to action.

Why? Because in a single moment a number can turn into a name, a tragedy into a victory, and a belief into an action.

Freedom. That's our goal for every human being on the planet.

Our Mission:
Abolish slavery everywhere, _forever_.
