About Us

DEFEND is a volunteer-run nonprofit dedicated to protecting children and other vulnerable people online. Our mission is to reduce online risks through education and technology to create safer digital spaces.

To support these efforts, we need dedicated individuals in key geographic areas that serve as ambassadors to amplify our cause.
