Saidou, a survivor of descent-based slavery, who now owns her own business

Could freedom be your legacy?

We all want to leave the world a better place and ensure our loved ones have a bright future. But for millions of people still trapped in slavery, freedom feels out of reach.

By leaving a gift in your Will to Anti-Slavery International, you can help people break free from slavery and rebuild their lives.

Even 1% of your estate can create lasting change, offering hope and freedom to those who need it most.

In Mauritania, people are still born into slavery, forced into a life of brutal labour with no way out. Women like Saidou are made to work from childhood, facing violence and hardship. When she fell seriously ill, her enslavers abandoned her. With no support, she crawled to a nearby road, desperate for help.

Thanks to support from our local partners, Saidou escaped slavery, received medical care, and built a new life. Today, she is thriving with her own business and is part of a community of women supporting each other towards freedom.

By leaving a gift in your Will, you can ensure more people like Saidou have the chance to escape slavery and build a future full of hope.

We’d love to hear from you

We’re always happy to hear from supporters who have left a legacy of freedom – but there’s no pressure to say so. We respect your privacy and our legacy charter outlines our promises to those considering leaving a gift in their Will to Anti-Slavery International.

“Today, it is inconceivable that slavery still exists. I urge you to help make the world a better and fairer place for all.

Help change forever the lives of people in slavery today by leaving a legacy to Anti-Slavery International.”
