In South Africa, we take safety seriously. We protect our homes with alarm systems, high walls, and armed response teams\u2013but what have you done to protect yourself and your household from the harm of internet pornography? <\/p>\n

The pornography industry makes billions of dollars a year transferring millions of Gigabytes of data on and off servers daily. The increase in internet use due to smartphones has only caused the industry to expand. Over the last few years South Africa has made it on the top 20 countries that daily view pornography. The epidemic is growing in South Africa at a rapid rate. <\/p>\n

That\u2019s where we come in. <\/p>\n

Previously addicted to pornography, Brendan knows very well the challenges and effort it takes to get out\u2014to Break Free\u2014from pornography\u2019s grasp. Our mission is to show South Africa the damage porn is doing to us both now and in the long-term. But, using psychological, technological, social, and spiritual resources, I also want to show you the way out. <\/p>\n

Together, we can make South Africa safer for ourselves and for our kids.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
