California is the #1 State in Human Trafficking!
The number doubles that of Texas. Being close to the border like Texas makes it easy to smuggle people in and out of the country.
The presence of transnational gangs in these areas make this crime more organized. Los Angeles being at the top of the list. (Source – https://www.humanracetohumanrights.com)

Sevenly was founded in 2011 with the mission of leading a generation toward generosity.
Based on a simple, core belief that ‘People Matter,’ the Sevenly team activated the now global ‘cause art’ movement and started creating 7-day cause campaigns, inviting customers to purchase products that donate to non-profits. Each campaign and every product would also create conversations.
Now widely recognized as one of the world’s leading ‘social good’ companies, Sevenly performs monthly, weekly, and even daily campaigns that change lives and bring awareness and funding to the world’s greatest causes

Our mission at Good Paper is to restore the human spirit. To restore the humanity and beauty within each of us that gets so easily forgotten and tossed aside.
We start with our cardmakers – women who have escaped sex trafficking in the Philippines and young adults orphaned by disease in Rwanda.

International Sanctuary (iSanctuary.org)
International Sanctuary, a non-profit organization, empowers survivors of human trafficking and commercial sexual exploitation. Founded in September of 2007, in Orange County, California, iSanctuary empowers and equips survivors for their future.
With its production base in Mumbai, India, the girls, 12-19 years old, receive skills training, creating handmade items. The products made by survivors are sold in the US at home parties, retail shops and community events.
Through these avenues, awareness generates action to fight human trafficking. iSanctuary is working to ensure survivors receive all the elements necessary for restoration, including education, counseling, vocational training, and mental, emotional and spiritual healing.
