OVERVIEW
International Sanctuary is a nonprofit focused on empowering girls and women escaping human trafficking through its worldwide sanctuaries and social enterprise Purpose Jewelry. The organization ran a One Day of Hope Campaign in July 2021 in support of World Day Against Trafficking in Persons on July 30, as well as to boost sales of the specially curated One Day of Hope Collection.
Creative Vortex worked in partnership with Little Red Communications to grow awareness of the campaign and boost jewelry sales through targeted social media and hashtags, an email campaign, and customized website elements. The campaign centered around the following:
- Jewelry in the One Day of Hope Collection costing $26, which is the same amount it takes to support one woman a day in their sanctuaries
- The words: Hope, Dignity & Freedom
- Human trafficking information and statistics
