In early 2020, Taylor Boswell found a new passion for bike riding. After months of training and riding for hundreds of miles, he was inspired by a close friend who reminded him that passion without purpose is ultimately pointless. Taking this to heart, he decided that he was going to ride his bike across Pennsylvania, his home state, and raise funds and awareness for human trafficking survivors.

Over the following months and after partnering with Project Rescue’s Freedom Challenge, Taylor’s Ride Against Traffic grew at incredible rates. People were inspired by his story and his passion and wanted to be a part of this movement. With support from fellow riders, his church, and his family, Taylor continued to gain momentum for the upcoming ride.

Over the course of five days, participants in the Ride Against Traffic travelled the 504 mile path across Pennsylvania, even through the rain! Everywhere these riders went, they talked about Project Rescue and explained their mission to help survivors of human trafficking.

When the ride was complete, they had raised over $60,000!

After the success and considerable achievements of Ride Against Traffic, it was clear to see the amazing way God worked throughout this time by inspiring many to take a stand against sexual exploitation and slavery. Taylor has once again partnered with Project Rescue and joined the Freedom Challenge to raise awareness and funds for survivors across the world.

Taylor continues to be an example of how to use your passion to help impact and support survivors of sexual exploitation -- passion & purpose coming together to help people around the globe!
