Our Work:
What We Do

Create Measurable Impact
By taking this ‘top-down, bottom-up’ approach, we are able to create social impact for those that are both directly and indirectly affected by the issues
What Drives Us:
Our Mission
The Abolish Foundation exists to create call-to-actions for global systemic problems. Our goals are to build new technology that will aid in bringing both awareness and action to the issues and to aid in supporting survivors through social-impact fundraising campaigns. By partnering with NGO’s who are tackling these issues on the ground, we aim to provide immediate relief, rehabilitation, and education to those directly affected by the issues.
With our current initiatives, our aim is to contribute to the elimination of modern-day slavery in line with SDG target 8.7 (below). We provide research- and evidence-based methods of raising awareness of various human rights issues associated with modern slavery; promote responsible, ethical, and compassionate consumerism; and offer direct support to victims of forced labour, labour exploitation, and worker abuse.
“8.7 – Take immediate and effective measures to eradicate forced labour, end modern slavery and human trafficking and secure the prohibition and elimination of the worst forms of child labour, including recruitment and use of child soldiers, and by 2025 end child labour in all its forms.”
— Goal 8.7, United Nations SDG Declaration (September 2015)
