Hello everyone...it's been a while...sorry...
So here is what is going on. I'm starting a Human trafficking awareness Campaign on Campus this week called the Human Wrong, and I'm really excited! I did it at Urbana '09 over break and it was awesome so I'm teaming up with a Greek philanthropy and turning it into a huge event. I'm working with a guy who was already putting on an event so we teamed up and combined our efforts and campaigns. Our goal is to raise $20,000. So if anyone wants to sponsor me to dance for 9 hours....please let me know...I'm looking for pledgers! Or buy a t-shirt....$12...made 100% slave free...it's awesome. :)
Did you know there are more slaves today than there were during the entire Trans Atlantic slave trade? Crazy right? There are over 200 million slaves today! Sickening....but do you ever hear anything about it? No. Why? B/c it is uncomfortable. We live in freedom and lavish life styles...why would we want to think of anything different? We don't want to feel guilty that we can buy whatever we want at the grocery store when someone is having to sell their child so they can both eat. We don't want to be uncomfortable. Well this week I'm making people uncomfortable and I'm excited b/c it's about time we did something about the elephant in the room....
Lots of Love and more to come,
xx
