Today we have two easy ways for you to make a difference in the fight against human trafficking.

1.  Tell Congress to fund programs to help end human trafficking.  In December of 2008 Congress voted to set aside millions of dollars to help survivors of trafficking and get traffickers off the street.  However, none of the funds can be used until Congress passes the legislation to appropriate the funds.  A simple click of your mouse can help send the message to Congress.  If the people cry out and show the government that they are serious about this issue, they must respond!

2.  Buy Fair Trade chocolate this Easter.  Yes, you’ve read our posts about the slavery that occurs in the cocoa industry before, but now is the perfect time of year to respond.  Rather than buying a chocolate bunny with cocoa that could have been made by slaves, take a few minutes to educate yourself about the chocolate producers out there and buy ethically sourced chocolate.  Find out more details here.
