Benefit concert for Zoe Children's Homes at Molly Malones in Los Angeles

LOS ANGELES- Come out for a night of great music to benefit ZOE Children's Homes and join us in the fight against human trafficking.

Join ZOE Children's Homes Thursday, August 27th at 8pm for a benefit concert at Molly Malones Irish pub in Los Angeles.

ZOE Children's Homes were launched to proactively rescue children who are at risk of being sold into human slavery and/or child prostitution.

Worldwide, it is estimated that up to 1,200,000 children per year are brought into the child prostitution and human slavery industries.

In the United States alone, it is estimated that 17,500 women and children per year are imported for this heinous work.

Human trafficking is an industry so lucrative, that the U.S. intelligence community estimates it is the second largest money maker for organized crime and may soon surpass the guns and narcotics trades within the decade. Child trafficking is an epidemic that is growing exponentially. Unfortunately, response to this pandemic and awareness of this issue has not kept pace. ZOE has begun in Thailand which is well known to be a hub for human trafficking througout Asia. ZOE is working with the Thai government, other NGO's, and the Church to help stop this evil crime against children.

It has been said that "Evil prevails when good men do nothing." Will you help us fight for those who cannot fight for themselves? (www.zoechildrenshomes.org )

Have you seen Amber Dubois?

On February 12, 2009, fourteen year old Amber Dubois went missing in Escondido, CA. The Marc Klaas Organization www.klasskids.org believes she has been taken for Human Trafficking. The Escondido Police and FBI have followed up on hundreds (900+) of tips and still have No Leads, so the belief that Amber was abducted for “Human Trafficking” is highly probable. Channel 10 ABC news recently did a segment on how young San Diego girls are being lured into Mexico and held captive by known gang members. Some of the abducted girls are being sold for “human trafficking (sex slavery)” purposes.

As a community of believers and justice seekers, please keep Amber in your prayers. If you have any information regarding the whereabouts of Amber, please call (858) 395-7533. You can also visit her website at: www.bringamberhome.com.
