Baptist Collegiate Ministries (BCM) is holding a women-only Red Thread Movement to raise awareness about sex trafficking around the world.
An estimated 14,500 to 17,500 women and children are trafficked into the United States each year, and Skylar Robinson from the BCM hopes to help do something about those numbers.
“My hopes are that girls will come and have a better understanding of what’s going on,” Robinson said.
Bracelets made by women rescued from Nepal will be sold for $3 each. The money from the bracelets will go to fund anti-trafficking border units and safe houses.
While learning about what one can do to help end slavery, women will also gather to make pizza and watch a movie.
The Red Thread Movement pizza and movie night scheduled for is Oct. 7 at 6 p.m.
The cost is $5 to attend. Signing up prior to the event is appreciated.
