Girls with Grit

One of our members choose to donate the collective $100 to Girls With Grit, which recently launched here in Austin. GWG informs girls our age about sex trafficking, and offers free preventative classes. As I was researching online, I found that 79,000 girls are sold into sex- trafficking in Texas alone. This statistic haunted me and made me realize how important it is to have organizations like GWG to prevent this from happening. We learned that 83% of victims in confirmed sex trafficking cases in this country areAmerican citizens. My goal was to help keep our Ten at a Time group safe and hope they watch out for dangerous online situations, and help spread awareness and simple precautions to others.
