Are you sick of wasting your money on useless plastic crap made in overseas sweatshops? Do you want to use your money to vote for something you actually support -- a hopeful future for former slaves? Then check out Change.org's weekly Red Light Special. Once a week, I'll be bringing you a product that heals rather than hurts, because the proceeds go to help victims of human trafficking. Shop Red Light Specials to be part of the solution, instead of part of the useless crap problem.

This Week’s Red Light Special… Handmade Paper Journal

Riji Green provides economic opportunities for human trafficking survivors and people at risk for trafficking through the sale of handmade products, like this journal. These beautiful books come in two color palates -- multicolor (pictured) and brown -- and are made of 100% renewable paper. Their firm wooden covers close with a button clasp. These journals would make a great gift for any writer or journaler. Plus, they help human trafficking victims develop important economic skills.

Let's face it, you don't need any more stuff in your life, but human trafficking survivors sure need a future. And you can give it to them with just a click of the mouse and a swipe of the credit card. So what are you waiting for?

You can buy this item from the link above, or at http://www.rijigreen.com/journal

If you know of an organization or business which you’d like to see financially rewarded for helping trafficking victims, let me know!
