Raising Awareness in November!

Happy November ! This month 10% of all sales made on CitrineTangerine.com will be donated to Kalamazoo Area Anti Human Trafficking Coalition which was founded by my mother. She is a very passionate and dedicated woman who puts all of her time into helping and serving others. Her KAAHTC is a 501.c3 non-profit that helps people like you & me stay informed, raises awareness of work & sex trafficking in our local communities by offering training as well as presenters to help you get informed, advocates to elected officials for laws to protect people who have been subjected to this evil, and trains volunteers to do any number of these things previously listed. They also give real life people who are trafficked a way out. They have done tremendous work with others to help real people, real people who also work with KAAHTC on their goals of helping people. The work is never over but these people get the real work done. I’ve seen it with my own eyes.

Over the month I’ll be sharing things you can do if you want to get involved or stay informed about the reality that is human trafficking. Last year we raised a couple hundred dollars on FB, this year I want to do at least the same. Every 100 dollars spent is 10 to #kaahtc, every 50 is 5. Give a gift to uplift some one who needs a pick me up or spoil yourself in a treat yourself moment. If you prefer to make a direct donation please do so on their website which I will be adding to my story with this post.

​Over the years I’ve had the privilege of meeting many people who have survived their experiences being trafficked. People who believe in KAAHCT and work with them. It is gut wrenching to hear their stories but it is the strength of their surviving and with help from people like my mother or any of her coalition community that really help others leave the life safely and with support. Thank you for reading this and know that no matter how hard or dark your life may be at any given time - it can always be worse and we need one another to help lift each other up. Ask for help if you need it. If you suspect human trafficking please get informed and notify the proper channels.
