Slavery exists...
Deep within the supply chains of the products we love.
Consider this...

has Capasitors that are made with Coltan. 64% of Coltan reserves are located in Congo where child laborers are work from sunrise to sunset.
there are estimated 200,000 child slaves working in Ivory Coast alone, harvesting 40% of the world's cocoa beans.

It all began with..
Justin Dillon
a onetime musician who
got involved in the
anti-slavery movement
hosting benefit concerts.
CALL + RESPONSE
Justin made abolitionism his full-time
job, making his directorial debut in the
human-trafficking documentary,
"CALL+RESPONSE."
The U.S. State Department
saw the film and approached Justin
for his help developing a narrative
that would allow individuals to
understand their connection to
modern-day slavery.
From that conversation,
Slavery Footprint was born.
On September 22, 2011,
Slavery Footprint
launched a website that
asked a single question:
"How Many Slaves Work
For You?"
The response was so
overwhelming that our
site couldn't keep up
with the traffic.
We crashed slavery.
Since then, millions of people from 200 countries have
visited slaveryfootprint.org to discover their connection
to modern-day slavery.
Headquartered in Oakland,
California, the Slavery Footprint
crew works to engage individuals,
groups, and businesses to build
awareness for and create action
against modern-day slavery.
In addition to develop the online
and mobile tools, we are currently
working directly woth businesses to
eradicate slavery from the products
we love.
