There is so much good stuff going on--I love it!!I'd like to introduce you to She Dances, a nonprofit organization I came across today. It's just getting started, and I'm already really excited about it. She Dances is a group based out of Birmingham, AL that is taking on the child sex trade: starting first in Honduras. She Dances is partnering with a group called L.A.M.B. (Latin American Missionary and Bible group) to build a safe home and refuge for child victims of trafficking.
Here's their "movement" mission statement:
We can be a voice for girls who even at the young age of 11 or 12 are bought and sold forcefully into the sex trade.We can be a voice for women in servitude labor... for hearts held captive.We can be a voice that stops human trafficking in the United States and in our world.It starts with all of us as we look at ways to engage the movement of freedom...
I'm currently fundraising for my Love146 trip so unfortunately my t-shirt buying is on hold... but I want one of these really badly! Maybe you can buy one for yourself and help spread the word for me :)
Follow She Dances on Twitter or on their blog... I have a feeling that through them, great things are in store.
"Every girl deserves to dream. Every girl deserves hope. Every girl deserves to love and to be loved. Every girl deserves to dance."
