Help fight human trafficking
My church is literally running to help fight Human Trafficking. March 15 is the LA Marathon and the Dream Center’s Project Hope is one of its premier charities. Almost 200 people are running to help free women and you can help by sponsoring one of our runners. Our goal is to raise $200,000 to help fund our Project Hope, which is actually the only emergency shelter for human trafficked victims in Southern California.
I’m choosing to highlight my fellow Media team member Chuck Goodrich who is running. You can sponsor him here: https://secure.qgiv.com/hobnob/account/543450
Of course, you can choose to sponsor any of our runners as all the proceeds go to Project Hope, just highlighting him since the poor guy doesn’t have that many sponsors…yet! Hehe.
More information about our cause can be found here: http://www.dreamcenter.org/marathon/
The video is both eye-opening and heart wrenching, one that I highly recommend watching.
EDIT: Here is the embeded video for those who cannot locate it on our site:

If you have any questions or want more information, fell free to ask me and if I cannot answer them I point you in the right direction.
