International Justice Mission (IJM) is an organization that does good work fighting injustice - specifically human trafficking. Faith and I support their work, and even had the special treat of visiting their offices in DC last summer. We wholeheartedly recommend them as a quality organization to support. If you are looking for ways to contribute to the global fight against trafficking, consider IJM.
I should also plug my own organization - International Teams. IT does great work among refugees and is also fighting against slavery and human trafficking around the globe. They've been organizing an event called Ride for Refuge for several years designed to raise awareness and support. It has been a smashing success. Click on the link above if you'd like to learn more and perhaps participate. They have scheduled rides this year in the Chicago area, Grand Rapids, Oklahoma city, and seemingly all of Canada (like 17 locations!). So especially for you americans, don't let the canuks do all of the serving! They can have the hockey gold medal - but don't let them do everything when it comes to ending injustice :-)
