Today April 9th is Shine a Light on Slavery Day - Here are some facts on this.
*27million people are in slavery today - thats more than any other time in history!
*1.2 million children are trafficked every year.
*50% of trafficking victims are minors, and 70% of those were once in foster care.
Will you join me in finding ways to get involved and end this! Slavery didn't end in the US - the land of the Free - when the Civil War ended. It is still a REAL thing that is holding others in darkness, in captivity, in our communities. My heart aches for those who have succumbed to this horrific way of life with no hope, and no way out. Something can be done though!
