INTRODUCING FREEDOM PLACE
Real Estate & Human Trafficking
100% of Developer's profits will go towards eradicating human trafficking and the sex trade.
ABOUT
Freedom Place projects create brand new real estate developments in cities across the world that generate value for all stakeholders, and yet create profits that can be 100% donated towards humanitarian causes.
The Freedom Place office tower is the first-ever billion-dollar office tower to be built with the goal of profits going towards fighting human trafficking. The prime Class A office building will be home to Fortune 500 corporate headquarters and leading companies that require modern, flexible, open spaces and the best amenities in a live-work-play environment.
The project anticipates raising approximately $125 million in profits, 100% to go towards combating human trafficking.

More than ever before in human history
HUMAN TRAFFICKING
"Human traffickers are earning billions of dollars on the backs and in the beds of our children," says Not My Life film director, Academy Award nominee, Robert Bilheimer, "and yet no one knows this is happening. We have a huge responsibility, right now, to learn the truth and act on it."
The average age in Bombay’s red light district is just 14 years. 2,000,000 sex slaves are trafficked into prostitution every year.
The U.N. estimates that worldwide slavery exceeds 36,000,000 people, more than ever before in human history.

CHARITIES
Each year, the human trafficking industry generates $150 billion worth of profits. Yet annual donations to fight human trafficking only reached $350 million, meaning that only less than 0.1% of the victims are helped each year. Business leaders must step up to the challenge.
On a $600 million real estate development project, we can generate $125 million of profit to go 100% to help charities such as these.
