An Important Cause: Somaly Mam & Project Futures Global

I have recently joined the Somaly Mam Foundation in the fight against human trafficking and modern-day slavery. Here in NY, we are launching SMF's newest program, PROJECT FUTURES global (http://www.somaly.org/project_futures), a platform for students, activists and young professionals to join the fight against, using their talents and skills, cause-based passion, and social networks, PROJECT FUTURES global will empower a generation to shape their world into one where women and children are safe from slavery. Taking action can mean anything from online awareness and fundraising campaigns, grassroots events, marathons and bike rides, campus outreach, and more. Stay tuned for Do-It-Yourself action packs and tips on how to get started! Join the social media pages, and if you live in the NYC area, on May 17th there will be a Launch Party, hosted by SNL's Seth Meyers http://on.fb.me/hps96w This is not an easy topic, but it is one that simply cannot be ignored. Speak up! Let your voice be heard! And if you're interested, also check out Demi Moore & Ashton Kutcher's partnered campaign over at: http://demiandashton.org/
