How You Can Help Stop Child Trafficking

As many of you probably know, the victimization of children through child trafficking has become a huge global problem. Sometimes we avoid opening our hearts to the grave situation these poor children are in because we feel helpless to do anything about it.

I want you to know that there is something you can do!

My dear friend Marla works with a wonderful organization, Zoe International. Zoe is a Christian organization that works to rescue children from trafficking, and also help children that are at risk of being abused this way. Marla is personal friends with the founders that work so tirelessly to help these children and they are real, generous, caring people who have given up a nice, comfortable life in the USA to go and put their life where their values are by serving the helpless, the poor, the abused, the horribly damaged children in parts of the world where they are defenseless and hopeless. Zoe provides a safe home and all of their food, health care, education, job training, and more that these children need to be able to move on from their abusive situation and grow up healthy, happy, and whole.

Marla is available to travel all over the USA to speak to groups about what Zoe does and how people can get involved and help. It can be a church group, a community group, a homeschool group, a college chapel service--anything. It doesn't matter. The only thing that matters is that people hear about what Zoe is doing!

I promise you that once you hear about the horrible, systematic, mind-boggling abuse that children are put through you will never want to turn your back on this issue again!

Here is what I am asking of you today:

1. If you have a blog or web site, would you share this information with your readers? You can do a quick link here with a short description, or write about it from your own heart.

2. If you have other blogging friends, would you spread the word and ask them to do the same?

3. Go check out the website. If you can, make a donation. Better yet, plan to send them a large one-time gift, or make it a monthly habit. It doesn't matter if you are a Christian or not--these children need help, and Zoe is providing that help! Don't hold back because you're not into religion or whatever. If you know of a similar organization that is also helping children in this predicament that has religious values you are more in support of, then give your money there. I don't care. The point is to HELP. NOW.

4. Would you consider hosting Marla at your group? Let her come and share some stories, some pictures, some good news of how Zoe International is bringing HOPE and LIFE to so many children that are desperate for it! Clickety click and get the ball rolling. They will send you an information pack and go from there.

You know I don't do too many infomercials, but this one had to be done. It's too important not to.
