Lizzy’s Cause
In the time it takes you to read this, at least one U.S. child has been trafficked. Many victims are tortured, sexually abused or conscripted into the secretive world of the international sex trade.
While it is easier to write off the dangers and assume such horrible things can only happen to others, that is not the case. These crimes are all too common and victims come from every segment of our society; in your neighborhood, your town, on your street.
According to a recent study published by the Department of Justice, roughly 750,000 American children are reported missing each year. Of that number, unofficial estimates show that 100,000+ are enslaved into the world of human trafficking, forced into prostitution and pornography. These children are being bought, sold, and discarded, and there is no effective means to end it. Until now.
“We learned first hand about the worst problem facing mankind, and in that knowledge, having the skill sets to effect change, we had to act. Immediately.”
