Stop Traffick fundraiser a success!

November 12th, 2009

On September 26th, Stop Traffick and Malia Designs hosted a successful fundraiser for Goutte d’Eau, an orphanage in Cambodia that rescues and rehabilitates children who have been trafficked and enslaved. With three locations nationwide, Goutte d’Eau gives these children access to counseling, food, shelter, education, and medication – and a chance for a life free from exploitation.

Stop Traffick raised more than $8,000 to help the children at Goutte d’Eau. The event was great fun, featuring live music, delicious food, and silent auctions. Thanks to all who attended and donated to this great cause!
