Even though you’ll probably never meet the young person you’ve impacted, know that a child will feel your support making a difference in their life.
In case you're confused:
😞 I look forward to The Red Gala. What happened? We don’t want to sugar coat this: It takes a lot of staff time and resources to make our galas memorable, and we needed a break. Also, the introverts.
😐 What about the introverts? Well, chit-chatting at big events and rooms full of hundreds of people isn’t their thing. We wanted to do something for them for a change.
😌 As an introvert, this is the best news I’ve heard all year! Even if you’re not holding a real gala, can I still contribute? Yes! And because we’re not spending money on things like decorations, feeding our guests, and hosting a cocktail hour, 100% of your donation will support our work!
😓 But I’m gonna miss getting a dose of that special Love146 hopefulness up close. Does this mean there won’t be any more of your inspiring Red Galas???? To tell the truth, we miss them, too. We’re already planning our next one — a REAL one — in Houston on May 2, 2020. Be sure to check your email for details after the New Year.
Founded in 2002, Love146 is working to end child trafficking and exploitation through survivor care and prevention. Our programs in The US, the UK, the Philippines and parts of Africa have reached over 55,000 children. The trafficking and exploitation of children is one of the darkest stories and most severe human rights abuses imaginable. But for many, the hope of ending it is a reality. Love146 is helping grow the movement to end child trafficking while providing effective, thoughtful solutions. We believe in the power of love and its ability to effect sustainable change. Love is the foundation of our motivation.
