STOP the Traffick 5k 2016 – What a day!

A big round of thanks to those who took part in our inaugural STOP THE TRAFFICK 5k walk/run this past Sunday. Thanks to your support, in excess of 8,000 women and girls will be stopped, interviewed and educated on human trafficking at Nepal border stations over the coming months. Of these 8,000 women/girls, it is expected that 40 of them will be stopped in the very act of being trafficked. This interception will likely save their lives. 

You made all of this possible because you chose to register and walk/run 5k’s on September 4th. So, take the time to acknowledge that you are in the our opinion, and in the opinion of 40 lucky girls in the near future, AMAZING. You’re a LIFE SAVER. This one act places you in the top 2 percent of amazing human beings that are changing their world, and we’re pumped to be a part of this horrible, yet wonderful work with you.

Below are a few photos from various team run around the world, including our partners in Nepal (who had a great time running in virtual mode with all of us on Sept 4th).
