Its a Penalty

Founded in 2014, Its a Penalty is a charity based in Leatherhead, United Kingdom working on human rights, children & youth.

Its a Penalty is a charity based in Leatherhead, Surrey, UK, working to prevent human trafficking, modern slavery and the abuse and exploitation of children. Since 2014 it has run global public awareness campaigns during major sporting events and CommonProtect, a legal advocacy initiative to protect children from sexual exploitation and abuse across the Commonwealth. It also provides consultancy and training for businesses to identify and address modern slavery risks. Its work is supported by partnerships with sporting athletes, the travel and tourism industry, sporting governing bodies, NGOs, governments and corporates. In the United States it operates through a fiscal sponsorship with Players Philanthropy Fund, Inc., a Texas nonprofit recognised by the IRS as a tax-exempt public charity, so donations there are tax-deductible. Its stated vision is a world in which no one is vulnerable to abuse, exploitation or human trafficking.
