pt 2 of... alot

The majority of this trip was educational. They wanted to fill us in on the trafficking problem and what they are doing to stop it. I will go into more detail about what we learned on another day. It's still hard to talk about. Especially after seeing the faces of some of the rescued girls and hearing the horrific stories. However on one day we did do an outreach to the cab drivers in the city. We broke up into about 15 groups of 4 and hit every major cab stand in the city. We handed out fliers and keychains with the hotline phone number on it. They were very receptive, for the most part, and confessed to seeing stuff that should be reported.

Cindy and I. We had duct tape to represent the girls without a voice

I also got to plaster the city with as many bumper stickers as possible. That was fun
