Stevi sent me a link the other day and asked me to post it in our side bar. The link was to a website for an organization based here in Birmingham called She Dances.
She Dances is a non-profit organization whose mission is to provide healing, hope, and a future for girls who are victims of human trafficking. Through safe homes, raising awareness, and the arts... we strive to create a movement of freedom.
Their Mission:
To provide healing, hope and a future to girls who have been victims of human trafficking.Through safe homes, raising awareness and the arts, we strive to create a movement of freedom.
Their Work:
There are over 27 million people in the world today who are held as slaves. There are at least 1.2 million children who are sold into slavery for the purposes of sexual exploitation each year. She Dances strives to create a movement of response to this injustice within artists, musicians, organizations, churches, and every breathing soul…
Hope in Honduras is a movement they have started in order to build a safe home for girls in Tegucigalpa, Honduras who have been victims of human trafficking. In order to raise funds to build the safe home, She Dances is hosting a benefit called Art brings Hope on September 25th at The Matt Jones Gallery. Please check out their site and consider being a part of this very worthy cause.
