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 ... Nepali Elephant T-Shirt

In Nepal there is a great folk saying, which roughly translates to "the elephant marches on, heedless of the barking dogs." It means that we are bigger and more powerful than that which annoys us, distracts us, or tries to push of off our path. And for the survivors of human trafficking who make these graphic tees, the saying means they are bigger and more powerful than the slavery they've lived through.

This shirt, featuring an elephant walking towards a barking dog, is a great way to inspire yourself or others to push past life's problems and realize their own power. And for only $10, what's not to love about this deal? The shirts are 100% cotton and all proceeds go to help survivors of human trafficking.

You can buy this item here.

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?

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