International Day for the Abolition of Slavery
December 2nd is the United Nations’ International Day for the Abolition of Slavery. This will be a great time to spread the word about human trafficking and modern-day slavery! A UK based actor has decided to row across the Atlantic starting December 6th to raise awareness about modern day slavery. Wow. Fortunately we don’t all have to row across the ocean to raise awareness. Stop Traffick Fashion will be hosting a Christmas Open House in Cincinnati on December 5th. What can you do? Remember, even the small things will make a difference!
