Get great graduation pictures.
Join the fight to end human trafficking.
Congratulations! You did it! Your graduate experience at USD probably hasn’t been what you imagined. Too many Zoom meetings and too few opportunities to enjoy your classmates and the beauty of the USD campus, but you’ve earned your degree!
Creating lasting memories with friends and family on graduation weekend is the perfect way to end on a high note while donating to fight sexual exploitation and human trafficking.
Celebrate your accomplishments and begin your future by being part of someone’s freedom story!
“I tell my students, ‘When you get these jobs that you have been so brilliantly trained for, just remember that your real job is that if you are free, you need to free somebody else. If you have some power, then your job is to empower somebody else. This is not just a grab-bag candy game.”

About the fundraising cause:
On August 6, Taylor and her parents will hike 23 miles in one day through the Sawtooth Mountains in Idaho with Freedom Hikers to raise money to support Rescue Freedom in their fight to end human trafficking. 100% of your photo shoot donation will go directly to Rescue Freedom.
A few reasons we love and support Rescue Freedom:
100% of administrative costs are covered by private donors so
100% of YOUR donation goes right to the women and children being helped
They work with local partners who are already invested in their communities. These local partners have relationships with medical, legal, vocational, and educational resources so there’s a place for the rescued women and children to grow and thrive.
$2,000 provides for the rescue and one year of restorative, holistic care for a woman or child
They invest in prevention and education, because the only thing better than rescuing a woman is preventing her from being exploited in the first place.
