One day. Ten artists. 100+ designs. One goal.
Because it could have been our kids.
On Saturday 10 October, The Wolves Den is going all in for Destiny Rescue with a massive Charity Flash Day, raising funds to help rescue and fully restore 20 children from trafficking and exploitation in South East Asia.
Our goal: $42,000.
Every $2,100 raised helps rescue and fully restore one child, giving them the chance at freedom, safety and a future.
Saturday 10 October 2026 | From 9AM | Pakenham
WHY WE ARE DOING THIS.
Right now, more than a million children are trapped in sex trafficking. Some as young as eight.
In parts of South East Asia, kids are sold and abused on demand, some of it paid for and live-streamed from right here in Australia.
My daughter is six. It breaks my heart to think of something so evil happening to someone so innocent.
Sit with that for a minute. What if it were your child? Your sister? Your partner? Your friend? For so many, this is their reality, sold and abused for money. It is horrific. And it doesn't stop.
One will be taken before you finish reading this section of the page. Another in the time it takes to decide whether to look away.
The only thing that separated our kids from theirs was luck. Where we happened to be born. A flip of a coin. Nothing more.
Here's the part that matters, though: it can be stopped.
We can't unknow this. And we can't look away. Responsibility is the ability to respond, and this is us doing our bit. Good people doing something good for someone we'll never meet.
So on 10 October, our whole studio is choosing to do exactly that. Ten artists, a full day, every dollar, to pull children out of the worst imaginable and hand them back their lives. And it lasts, years later these kids come back with families and careers of their own, and say "look what we've got, because of you."
"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good people to do nothing."
We're choosing to do something. Come do it with us.
Direct donations over $2 are tax-deductible.
THE GOAL
Every $2,100 raised helps rescue and fully restore one child.
But rescue is only the beginning. It’s the whole journey back to a childhood: a safe home, healthcare, counselling, education, ongoing care and the support to build a future beyond trafficking.
Not just rescued. Restored.
Our goal is $42,000, enough to help 20 children find freedom, safety and a future.
That’s 20 lives changed in one day.
$2,100 = 1 CHILD
$42,000 = 20 CHILDREN
Help us get there!
Direct donations over $2 are tax-deductible.
WHO IS DESTINY RESCUE?
Destiny Rescue rescues children from sex trafficking and sexual exploitation, then does the harder, longer work of helping them stay free. Rescue alone isn't enough, so their teams provide safe housing, healthcare, education and vocational training so every child they free actually gets their whole life back, not just an exit from harm.
In 25 years, Destiny Rescue has rescued over 27,000 children, and 86% of them stay free from trafficking for good. They're ACNC registered, and at least 70 cents of every dollar goes directly to their programs on the ground.
The Wolves Den has partnered with Destiny Rescue since we opened our doors, almost 10 years ago. This isn't a cause we picked for one event, it's part of who we are as a studio. Freedom Flash Day is our biggest push yet to back the work they do.
Direct donations over $2 are tax-deductible.
THE TATTOO DESIGNS
10 artists. 100+ designs. Every single one created and donated specifically for this day.
Our artists aren't just donating their time. They're donating their art too, with every flash piece available for $200, roughly palm-sized.
100% of the $200 tattoo service revenue goes directly to Destiny Rescue, helping us work towards our goal of raising $42,000 to rescue and fully restore 20 children.

WHAT IS A FLASH DAY?
Flash tattoos are pre-drawn designs, ready to tattoo on the day.
No custom consult, no waiting around. Pick your design, choose your artist, and get tattooed.
HOW THE DAY WORKS
10 artists are donating their time and artwork for the day.
100+ flash designs will be available to choose from across all 10 artists.
Doors open at 9AM and we'll keep going until we drop.
The first 1–2 appointments per artist can be pre-booked through our High Impact spots. Everything else is walk-in, first in, best dressed.
All flash designs are arms and legs only and will be numbered for easy reference. When it's your turn, just give us the number of the design you'd like.
Flash pricing is the minimum, not the limit. If you'd like to make an even bigger contribution, you're welcome to pay above the listed price, with the difference going towards the campaign.
And most importantly, every artist is donating their time, with 100% of service revenue from the day going to Destiny Rescue.
Pick a design. Pick your artist. Get tattooed. Help change a life.
FAQ'S
How much does a flash piece cost?
Prices are set as a floor per design, from $200, covering the tattoo itself. You're welcome to pay above the floor, most people round up to help free a child, with tiers to add $50 or $150 on top if you'd like to maximise your impact.
What is flash, exactly?
Pre-drawn designs, ready to tattoo as-is, no custom consult. Pick one from the book and get inked the same day.
Do I need to book, or can I just walk in?
Both. A small number of High Impact spots are pre-bookable (see above), everything else is walk-in, first-in-best-dressed. Expect a line, and expect it to be part of the fun.
What are High Impact spots?
The first 1–2 appointments for each artist, bookable ahead of time with a deposit that goes straight to Destiny Rescue. They guarantee your place and your artist.
Can I pick any design, or are there limits?
Designs are arms-and-legs placements only, and available as-is, no size or placement customisation on the day. Each is numbered, just quote the number when it's your turn.
How do I pay?
All payment methods accepted. We encourage adding a little extra on top of your tattoo, every dollar goes to Destiny Rescue.
What's the merch, and what's it printed on?
A limited-edition Protect The Pack tee ($55), printed on an AS Colour Block Oversized Tee, created exclusively for the day. All tee sales go straight to the campaign.
Is there a raffle?
Yes. $10 a ticket or 3 for $25 for your shot at $1,500 in studio vouchers ($900 / $500 / $100), drawn live at 4:30PM on the day. 100% of ticket sales go to Destiny Rescue. Raffle tickets aren't tax-deductible.
Who is Destiny Rescue?
An Australian-registered charity that rescues children from sex trafficking and exploitation, then does the longer work of helping them stay free, safe housing, healthcare, counselling, education and vocational training. In 25 years they've rescued over 27,000 children, and 86% stay free for good.
How do they actually rescue children?
Four ways. Undercover agents pose as buyers and work with police to extract kids and shut operations down. Raid operations target businesses built solely on exploiting children. Border teams in Nepal intercept traffickers before any harm is done, over a thousand children last year alone. And their online team uses law-enforcement technology to find offenders live-streaming abuse and get those children out.
Is it safe, and how do they work with authorities?
Destiny Rescue works hand-in-hand with local law enforcement in every country they operate, building airtight, prosecutable cases so offenders go to prison and children stay safe. They've built such strong trust that in places like the Philippines, police teams compete to work with them.
What happens to a child after they're rescued?
This is what makes it stick. Every rescued child gets a plan built around them: a safe home, healthcare, counselling, education and vocational training, whatever they need to rebuild a life. It's why 86% stay free for good. Years later, kids come back with families, careers and homes of their own.
What does $2,100 actually pay for?
The whole journey home: locating a child, the rescue itself, then the safe housing, healthcare, counselling and education that help them rebuild. Not just an exit from harm, a future.
Where does the money go?
Destiny Rescue is ACNC registered, and at least 70 cents of every dollar goes directly to their programs on the ground. 100% of what we raise on the day goes to them, we keep nothing.
Is child trafficking really an Australian problem?
Sadly, yes, and worse than most people realise. Child protection advocates estimate that as many as 500,000 live streams of children being sexually abused pour into Australia every single day, much of it paid for by Australians and produced to order overseas. Australia is one of the worst offending nations in the world for this. It isn't a faraway problem, and that's exactly why we're standing up locally.
How do I know it works?
86% of the children Destiny Rescue frees stay free from trafficking for good. Rescue plus real restoration is what makes that number stick.
Can I give ongoing, not just once?
Yes, and it's one of the most powerful things you can do. Becoming a Rescue Partner, for about the cost of a coffee a day, helps fund a full child rescue over the course of a year.
Are my donations tax-deductible?
Direct donations over $2 to Destiny Rescue are tax-deductible and receipted automatically. Note that tattoo payments and raffle tickets aren't deductible, since you receive something in return.
Can I help if I can't get a tattoo?
Absolutely. Donate directly, buy a tee, grab a raffle ticket, or start your own fundraising page. You don't have to be in the chair to free a child.
CAN'T MAKE IT?
You can still help free a child.
Can't make it to The Wolves Den on 10 October? You can still be part of the mission.
Donate directly to Destiny Rescue, no matter how big or small, or start your own fundraising page and get your friends, family and community behind the cause.
You don't have to be in the chair to make an impact.
Every dollar gets us closer to our goal of helping 20 children find freedom, safety and a future.
These kids have never met us. But on 10 October, they're part of the pack. And the pack looks after its own.
Direct donations over $2 are tax-deductible.
