Human trafficking, also known as modern day slavery, is a growing problem in today’s world. Right now there are over 27 million people trapped in slavery around the world. There are more slaves now than there have ever been at any point in history. It even happens here in Louisville. If you’d like to join in the fight, and help raise awareness that slavery still exists, then sign up for the Walk For Freedom on Oct. 17th. You can get more information in the front lobby during your lunch this week. It doesn’t cost anything to sign up. Come join us and help us shine a light on Slavery.
