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… Military-Style Jacket

Fall is in the increasingly chilly air, which means that the time is ripe for a cool new jacket.  How about this military-inspired one from The Emancipation Network?  It's a cotton jacket decked out with military-style buttons, but with one twist- traditional Cambodian fabric is the liner.   That's because these jackets are sewn by human trafficking survivors in Cambodia.  So this fall, why not invest in a jacket that invests in abolition?

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

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