Human trafficking is modern-day slavery. Through force, fraud, and coercion, people are being bought and sold against their will for labor and commercial sex acts. It’s a global crisis involving the illegal trade of humans that is impacting our local communities.
- 49.6 million people are estimated to live in slavery worldwide
- Less than 1% of victims are rescued
- Human trafficking is recognized as the fastest growing criminal industry
- An estimated 5.4 out of every 1,000 people are enslaved in the world.
This data represents people who are being exploited in one of the most horrific ways. Some of these people are right here in our community - right under our noses and they go unnoticed day after day. In the United States and Pennsylvania, the majority of victims are women and girls who have been coerced into sex trafficking. Without intervention, including a safe place to go and help to heal from the horrific abuse they have endured, they are truly trapped. You can help a survivor find freedom today by supporting Greenlight Operation’s Run for Restoration.
We are trying to raise $30,000 to support Greenlight Operation’s mission to strategically combat human trafficking and provide restorative care to survivors. Will you help us reach that goal so we, together, we can advance freedom?
Sincerely,
The Greenlight Operation Team
