red thread movement.

today i am proud to say that i became a member of the red thread movement!!
this is a really great cause that i think everyone should look into getting involved in.
the idea of this nonprofit is to raise awareness of sex trafficking worldwide, but focusing on the problem of sex trafficking in nepal. thousands of young women are kidnapped from nepal (where they are not "missed" because women in nepal are at the bottom of the food chain... & i mean beneath the cows, bottom) & sold into the sex trade in india & surrounding areas.
here's a video to show you what i mean:


so today i joined the WSU chapter of the Red Thread Movement & bought the 3 dollar bracelet, made by a young girl from Nepal who got a second chance.
i must say it goes quite well with my other assortment of bracelets!
yay! for more information about the cause, visit their website.
