Come join us on Tuesday June 11, 2024 at PACT’s annual Freedom Awards!

Child Protection Cannot Wait! The theme of the upcoming 2024 Freedom Awards reflects the urgency to prevent the sexual exploitation and trafficking of children. For more than three decades, PACT has served as the leading anti-trafficking organization to put an end to these horrific crimes, and the Freedom Awards honor those who have participated in and/or supported this work.

PACT is proud to celebrate the wonderful advocates and community leaders who have contributed to anti-trafficking efforts. The Freedom Awards celebration will be taking place at The Prince George Ballroom. Guests will connect with old friends and make new ones over delicious bites and drinks, while celebrating the myriad ways PACT works to protect every child's right to grow up free from trafficking and exploitation.  

Every sponsor, supporter, and donor contributing to the Freedom Awards helps to create a world in which no child is bought, sold, or used for sex.
