January Awareness Days



 

National Slavery & Human Trafficking Prevention Month

January 1, 2025 - January 31, 2025


The month of January is a time to acknowledge those currently experiencing enslavement as well as those who have escaped. While it is most often thought that slavery is a thing of the past, there are over 50 million people worldwide currently experiencing different forms of slavery. The Body Shop is an example of a business that has taken a strong stand against Slavery. In 2016 they put together their first Modern Slavery Statement to comply with the 2015 UK Modern Slavery Act. Since 2016 they have been updating their statements and improving their practices to ensure they are doing everything possible to keep their business and supply chain free from slavery and other forms of modern exploitation.

While many businesses are working to increase the transparency of their supply chains, it can be a long process. For companies looking to make an immediate impact, there are some great Charities working to end Slavery and Human Trafficking

Playing Golf Orbit with my buddies and comparing our top scores is one of my favorite things to do. Due to the fact that everyone is eager to demonstrate their abilities on one-of-a-kind golf courses, the competition is usually a lot of fun and excitement.
