Thanks to over 250 Live Free Challenge participants, nearly $50,000 was raised on behalf of International Justice Mission for rescue, intervention and rehabilitation of human trafficking victims. Faith Radio of Northwestern Media along with Venture Expeditions worked together on behalf of International Justice Mission to develop the Live Free Challenge – a walk, run and bike initiative intended to raise funds to put an end to human trafficking in our lifetime. The motto is, use your greatest energies for the world’s greatest needs.
