OUR PARTNERS.

  • THE FREEDOM STORY

    We stand with a Northern Thailand–based nonprofit preventing child trafficking before it starts through education, human rights training, scholarships, and family income support. In 2025, we started The Freedom Challenge, where all proceeds from the year-long virtual run are directed to The Freedom Story.

  • SONS AND DAUGHTERS

    We’re grateful to support a team empowering survivors of exploitation through outreach, safe housing, aftercare, and reintegration programs. This season, we’ll be back with a residential mother and child as she works toward launching her catering business back home!

We have partnered with some amazing charities since 2010. Check out some of past projects with our charitable partners.

  • Justice Centre

    Justice Centre is a Hong Kong-based charity that provides free, independent, high-quality legal information to all people going through the Unified Screening Mechanism, in their own language, where possible. They aim to provide life-changing services to refugee men, women, and children. They campaign for fairer legislation and policies, produce reports and policy papers, conduct research and work with schools, universities, and the media to fight root causes and change systems and minds.

  • Chab Dai Coalition

    The 24 Hour Race helped finance programs through 49 Cambodian NGOs by supporting Chab Dai Collection’s work with anti-slavery organisations. Chab Dai Collection develops best practices, connecting programs and providing much-needed support to under-resourced NGOs. Some of their programs include prevention, protection, intervention, aftercare, reintegration, vocational training, and employment provision for victims of slavery.

  • A21

    We’re honored to have partnered with a global organization whose mission is to end slavery by reaching the vulnerable, recovering victims, and restoring survivors. In 2023–24, we supported the rebuild of the Child Advocacy Center and a major film project in Cambodia.

  • Right4Children

    Right4Children focuses on the prevention and long-term change aspect of battling human trafficking. They do this through various projects ranging from hotel training programs to earthquake rebuilding. They focus on helping young people from disadvantaged backgrounds, which includes former trafficking victims. Right4Children acknowledges the ease with which rescued trafficking victims tend to go back to traffickers as they face many hardships during their reintegration into society - they have most likely missed many crucial years of education, making it hard for them to find jobs, and they also have to face social stigma.

  • Blue Dragon Children’s Foundation

    Blue Dragon Children’s Foundation is an Australian charity in Vietnam founded in 2003 when two friends offered English lessons to street kids. Since then, Blue Dragon has expanded into an organization of 67 loyal staff, helping to support over 1,500 children throughout Vietnam every year.

  • SUKA Society

    SUKA Society is a small but growing organization, one that has already inspired our student network in Kuala Lumpur through its educational and awareness programming. This year 24 Hour Race will support the operations of SUKA’s transitional shelter for victims of trafficking to Malaysia, a destination country for domestic workers, bonded labor, and the sex trade. SUKA’s shelter is designated primarily for children, so often exploited in these circumstances. This is a key resource in the government’s effort to address the human trafficking situation. SUKA’s programming at the shelters place an emphasis on vocational skill-set development, so that victims not only have a productive pipeline back into society, but are able to generate income while in the transitory shelter.

  • Banning Slavery in Nepal

    In 2012, the 24 Hour Race raised enough funds to help ban the trafficking of children from Nepal to India, especially with the circus industry.

  • Hope Be Restored

    Hope Be Restored stands for “Helping the Oppressed and Prisoners of Injustice Escape and Be Restored”. Hope Be Restored seeks to bring freedom for the oppressed and restoration to lives that have been affected by human trafficking in Korea and around the world. HOPE began in January of 2011 and has been serving the community in Seoul by providing direct services to victims of sex trafficking.

  • HOME Foundation

    H.O.M.E., founded in 2004, is a registered charity and society that works closely with the Ministry of Manpower, Immigration authorities, and the various foreign embassies to ensure the well-being of workers. ‘To build a culture of welcome where no man, woman, or child is a stranger; we are family’, their vision clearly states that their goal is to create an inclusive society which upholds the principles of equality and non-discrimination
