Human Trafficking
Change will not come, if we wait for others or for some other time. We are only one organization, but we are one. Bahamas Lotus cannot do everything, but we can do something. And we will not let what we cannot do interfere with what we can do. Our fight against human trafficking is one of the great human rights issues of our time. LIFE is a gift from our creator, and it SHOULD NEVER BE FOR SALE. The time is now, join Bahamas Lotus as we use our platforms to bring awareness to issues like human trafficking, slavery, justice, and freedom.

National Slavery and Human Trafficking Prevention Month
In 2011 President Barack Obama issued a Presidential Proclamation, designating each January to be National Slavery and Human Trafficking Prevention Month. The anniversary of this proclamation became known as National Human Trafficking Awareness Day.
Slavery was officially abolished in the British Empire on August 1st, 1834 (which covered The Bahamas) however, sadly human trafficking is growing at an alarming rate despite the ongoing fight, it has become a lucrative business for some.
Many of the anti-trafficking organizations arrange awareness raising campaigns all year round, but particularly in January when this awareness day is recognized, and publicity is at its peak. It is a key time for us all as individuals to educate ourselves about human trafficking and crucially to learn to spot the signs of trafficking. This is also a time for us to take these messages to our workplaces, our churches, our schools, our representatives and everywhere else.
Despite the bleak picture human trafficking paints, there are ways to take action. Become informed and get involved. Everyone can play a part in ending human trafficking. Blue is said to be the international color of human trafficking awareness. Join Bahamas Lotus by wearing blue during the month of January and share your photo using #SlaveryHumanTraffickingPreventionMonth and on January 11th #WearBlueDay to call attention to this crime. “Blue Campaign… One Voice, One Mission. End Human Trafficking”

World Food Day
Every year on October 16th around the world, World Food Day is celebrated with a view to pay tribute to the founding date of the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations. This day allows us to reflect and think about solutions against world hunger. It gives us an opportunity to collectively take action to fight against this global problem.

International Day of the Girl Child
International Day of the Girl Child is a worldwide celebration that takes place every year on October 11th. The entire day centers on the importance of raising girls to believe in themselves and teaching them that, there is nothing they cannot achieve, with a little hard work and dedication. We must insure they know that they are limitless, unstoppable, valued and not inferior to their counterpart, and that they were created to be trail blazers.
