Human Slavery

Last night I was able to watch the film, Call + Respond which will come in theaters in October. My friend of 5 years Justin Dillion is the director and has partnered with another friend, David Batstone of the Not for Sale Campaign. I have been well aware of the issue for years now, and known both of these gentleman apart from each other. It’s funny how small and connected the non-profit sector is. We all know each other. But we need more people getting involved to make a difference.

If you don’t know, there are over 27 million slaves in the world today – more than any other time in history. Wow, really! Did you think slavery is an issue from the past? Well, it is isn’t! And you probably support the $32 billion industry without even knowing it. Justin is a doer and he’s bringing awareness to this issue to say: ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! And at Giving Children Hope we agree!

So we hope you’ll see the film when it goes into theaters soon. And we hope you’ll do something you are passionate about in this world to make a difference.

As we say at Giving Children Hope – this is YOUR world and we are YOUR organization. Don’t just be educated – do something!
