Dear _________
Some Valentine’s Day perspective
The economics are simple. In 2005, Americans spent 13 billion dollars on Valentine's Day.
Human Trafficking/Slavery generates around 32 billion dollars every year. That's less than what we spend on three Valentine's Days. Three days... If that doesn't bring you hope, I don't know what will. We have the means. If we have the will...the impossible is possible.
I wish you could meet Joy. She is 14 yrs. old, and was the first child to enter our new safehome in the Philippines this year. To read about Joy's incredible journey please read our blog entitled "The Joy of our Home."
To celebrate Valentine's Day we have a goal to raise $140,000 in February. This will keep our safehome in the Philippines operating for the rest of the year. If each of our friends donates a minimum of $14 in February, we can reach this goal! We can continue to be a home for Joy.
We're not asking you to give up your Valentine's Day traditions, we are asking you to join us in incorporating more into that tradition. More Love.
I believe in the power of the individual. I believe in the power of $14. Please consider incorporating Joy into your Holiday.
You can give through our website {Donate Now}
With Love,
