600,000-800,000 men, women and children trafficked across international borders each year. Approximately 80 per cent are women and girls. Up to 50% are minors - US State Department

It is the fastest growing form of international crime, already generating 7 billion dollars per year in criminal proceeds. There are even reports that some trafficking groups are switching their cargo from drugs to human beings, in a search of high profits at lower risk. - UN


I was honestly shocked when I learned about human trafficking and how it operates on such a grand scale. It's hard to think of a more terrible injustice to someone and to think it goes on in our own country like it does.

I wanted to share this with you guys here and let you know I am doing my own project, mostly for those in the St. Louis area to help raise funds to stop human trafficking. info here

I signed the document....

Someone invited me to join a Facebook group dealing with this issue just the other day...

Atrocious ..amazing to me the suffering that goes on while we go about our business. I hate that. Then there are those who you have to make sure you can trust that are really dealing with the suffering. That is just as disgusting to me that ppl are making money that way too...

Thanks for sharing this...
