As the holiday season draws near, our hearts are stirred with the spirit of giving and the call to generosity and kindness. Amidst the hustle and bustle of Black Friday and Cyber Monday, one day stands out for its potential to create lasting change – Giving Tuesday. At Horacio Printing, we're all about purposeful living, and on this special day, we invite you to join us in making a difference that goes beyond beautiful planners and printed goods. I'm so excited to share how your support on Giving Tuesday can amplify our commitment to impactful giving and truly make a difference in the battle against modern-day slavery. 

A21: Our Shared Passion Against Human Trafficking

At Horacio Printing, our faith-inspired values drive us to stand against injustice, echoing the sentiment of Proverbs 31:8-9 (NIV): "Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute. Speak up and judge fairly; defend the rights of the poor and needy." This resonates profoundly with our partnership with A21 in their fight for freedom.

A21, a non-profit organization dedicated to abolishing human trafficking, has been making significant strides in rescuing victims, providing aftercare, and raising awareness. The statistics are stark: an estimated 25 million people are victims of human trafficking worldwide, with 75% being women and children. A21, as our valued partner, has played a crucial role in rescuing over 19,000 survivors across 17 countries. Further, their educational programs have reached millions, contributing to a growing global movement to end human trafficking. Your support on Giving Tuesday can directly contribute to their efforts.

Watch as A21 Founder, Christine Caine, shares more on A21's vision and the global impact being made by people just like you. 

 

You Can Join The Fight

We're reaching out to you, our incredible community, to join us in supporting A21. Your actions, rooted in faith and compassion, can be a powerful force for change. Matthew 25:40 (NIV) reminds us of our responsibility: "Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me." Here are two ways you can help today: 

  1. Visit the A21 website to explore their incredible work and consider making a direct donation here.
  2. Shop with purpose at Horacio Printing. We donate 20% of our quarterly profits to support A21 and make a tangible impact on the lives of those in need.

1 Peter 4:10 (NIV) tells us, "Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God's grace in its various forms." This is what we strive for every day at Horacio Printing.

This Giving Tuesday, let's embrace the true spirit of the season by supporting causes that truly make a difference. Whether you choose to contribute directly to A21's fight against human trafficking or shop at Horacio Printing for a purpose, your actions can help bring about positive change in the world. Remember that generosity knows no bounds, and by giving back, you become a vital part of the global movement to create a better, more compassionate future.
