I'm raising money to prevent Sexual Slavery in Thailand.
With Justifi, I will be going on a ten-day trip to work with several exceptional grass-roots organizations and people who have dedicated their lives to combating human trafficking. The volunteer work that I will be doing will be focused prevention within vulnerable populations as well as with those already a part of sex trade.
Justifi is a transformational social activism program with the goal to save the world. Rabbi Jamie Cowland founded Justifi in 2010 and since then, they have built playgrounds, opened after-school centers, set up classrooms, laid foundations, supported local entrepreneurs, and circulated tens of thousands of dollars towards grass-roots projects in desperate need of support around the world. For more information, visit http://www.justifi.org/.
The first $350 that I raise will go directly to support the sponsored projects that Justifi works with and Justifi's ongoing tikkun olam work. Any additional money that I raise will go towards making it financially easier for me to participate in this project--and to continue helping.
If you want more specific information from me personally or about me, please email me at ssblees@gmail.com.
I feel so blessed to have the opportunity to participate on a trip like this. Thank you so much for helping me to help others.
