The Defenders’ Pledge

Today, I make a personal commitment to live this out before my family, friends, and community:
I take a stand against pornography, stripping, prostitution, and all forms of commercial sexual exploitation.
I will continually educate myself and challenge attitudes, words, and behaviors that contribute to exploitation and harm.
I will take action to protect those I love from the realities and impacts of this destructive industry.
By taking this pledge, I choose to live with integrity, accountability, and respect for the dignity of every person.
Make Your Pledge Count
Support the work that protects women and children and confronts sexual exploitation.
Becoming a Defender begins with taking responsibility for how you live and what you allow.
Some Defenders choose to take this commitment further by investing in the work that makes prevention, restoration, and justice possible. Your generosity strengthens Shared Hope International’s efforts to protect women and children, support survivors, and confront sexual exploitation at its root.
