Troy: For Freedom Annual Fundraiser

November 2, 2018 @ 6:00 pm - 9:30 pm

 

On November 2nd, Michigan Abolitionist Project will gather together individuals, businesses, and faith-based communities for its 4th annual fundraiser, For Freedom.

Today, Human Trafficking is a $150 billion industry, enslaving more than 25 million adults and children around the globe. Here, in Michigan, there are more than 2,700 men, women and children who have been robbed of their freedom and enslaved in trafficking activities against their will. 

This year, MAP’s goal for its For Freedom fundraiser is to raise more than $65,000 to support our much needed work of education, prevention, advocacy and awareness. 

Join us on Friday, November 2, at the San Marino Club in Troy for a plated chicken dinner, live music, and a silent/live auction. Ticket purchase and event registration is required.

Empowered together, we can achieve our vision of a slave-less society. 

Will you join us, For Freedom?
