Our live blog may have closed, but the #MyFreedomDay messages have kept coming -- including this one from students in Ecuador: "Help stop human trafficking and be part of the change."

That's a wrap from us on the live blog for #MyFreedomDay 2021. On behalf of everyone at the CNN Freedom Project, thank you for the photos, videos, signed pledges and creative artwork shared from all over the world.

Most importantly, thank you for pledging to help fight modern-day slavery. It takes all of us. See you next year!
