International Justice Mission - Campus Chapter

About Us

IJM at KSU is a campus chapter under International Justice Mission headquartered in Washington, D.C. As a campus affiliate, we strive to fulfill their mission to protect people in poverty from violence by rescuing victims, bringing criminals to justice, restoring survivors to safety and strength, and helping local law enforcement build a safe future that lasts. Together with other college campuses across the nation we fundraise and advocate for IJM's vision to rescue millions, protect half a billion, and make justice unstoppable.

IJM Headquarters

International Justice Mission is a global organization that protects people in poverty from violence. IJM partners with local authorities in 22 offices in 14 countries to combat slavery, violence against women and children, and police abuse of power against people who are poor. IJM works to rescue and restore victims, hold perpetrators accountable, and help strengthen public justice systems.

IJM at K-State

We support IJM's mission through fundraising, advocacy, and prayer which are our three pillars. We have yearly fundraising events, such as Threads, which is a thrift pop-up shop and a fun event to be a part of. We partner with other organizations across campus and are actively advocating for the end of slavery in our lifetime.

The Problem: Everyday Violence

The threat of violence is part of everyday life for people who are poor. It's as much a part of poverty as hunger, disease or homelessness. This is not the violence of war or genocide, but common, criminal violence that is already against the law -- crimes like slavery, violence against women and children and police abuse of power.

Why is it Still Prevalent?

In many communities, criminals expect no consequences for these crimes. Laws are not effectively enforced, so they continue to enslave and abuse people who are poor. People in poverty are uniquely vulnerable to this violence, because while their wealthier neighbors can pay for security and safety, they cannot.

IJM's Solution

In the face of this abuse, IJM and our partners protect people in poverty from violence. We collaborate with local authorities to build communities where all people can expect to be safe and protected.

IJM & Partners:

1. Strengthen justice systems

2. Rescue and restore victims

3. Bring criminals to justice

4. Scale demand for protection
