Background
Not for Sale is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization based out of California. It began when organization president, David Batstone, discovered that one of his favorite Indian restaurants near his home was using trafficked women from India to cook meals and perform various tasks around the restaurant. One of the women was killed in a gas leak, making the restaurant’s trafficking known.

This discovery shocked Batstone and gave him an all-consuming passion to stop modern-day slavery. He began to travel around the world to learn more about trafficking and thus began Not for Sale to raise awareness for trafficking around the world.

Not for Sale is essentially a campaign to increase awareness of modern day slavery. People will host parties in the name of Not for Sale to inform others of slavery around the world. The organization is made up of students, social workers, lawyers, politicians, athletes and any other people who are interested in fighting human trafficking.
