If you’ve read the Yahoo headlines, there’s a lot of talk about 09-09-09 – companies changing launch dates and wedding package specials to feed off the attention to this date. Today I came across something I felt was also worthy of attention. It’s from my friend Lynn Mosher. This brought me to tears today and I want to share it with you – an excerpt from Lynn’s blog and the video on http://born2fly.org.
9000 People Each Giving $9 On
09-09-09
Join us for a 1-day fundraiser for the Born2Fly Project to stop child sex trafficking: 9,000 people each giving $9 on 9/9/09.
Each year more than a million kids are lured into modern-day slavery where they’re raped for profit 30 or 40 times a night—night after night. Some of them are just 4 years old. Many are right in the U.S. If that makes you angry, here’s what you can do about it.
• Donate: Go to www.born2fly.org and use the Chip-in widget to donate $9.
• Email: Tell 9 people about 09-09-09 and send them to www.born2fly.org.
