I have two good friends, Niki and Cammy, who are passionate about the fight against sex trafficking. They have each decided to be creative about raising some funds for Hope for the Sold! Here’s what they’ve cooked up.
This is Niki. She is a ridiculously generous, passionate person and has done SO much in support of the abolitionist movement over the years, including hosting awareness events with sheer excellence. Her birthday is coming up this week, and instead of gifts she has requested that people make a donation to Hope for the Sold! She makes it very clear that she does not expect birthday gifts in the first place, but if people are so inclined, she wants her birthday to be an opportunity for impact. So cool. Say HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Niki by donating below!
This is Cammy. She is one of the coolest, quirkiest people I know. She has chickens in her backyard. When we met Cammy and her husband, they proudly showed us a room full of fair trade sugar they had shipped in to make it more accessible to their community! Cammy, being rather talkative, has decided to take on the challenge of being silent for a day to raise funds for Hope for the Sold! Make Cammy’s day of zipping her lips worth it!
The money donated is going toward our documentary project, for which we are travelling to several countries to explore what models prevent sex trafficking, and what laws and initiatives make it worse. Our goal is to inspire people to think differently about prostitution, so that both government and individuals can adopt practices that stop commercial sexual exploitation from ever happening in the first place. We are boarding a plane this weekend to begin filming, so Niki and Cammy’s initiatives to raise funds could not come at a better time!
Thanks Niki and cammy for your beautiful, selfless hearts, and your dedication to making a difference in this world.
How incredible! It’s a priviledge to call you guys friends (you too Cammy)! Yet another powerful example of what happens when individuals do a small part….you get a BIG impact!
