The Bridge to Freedom Foundation
(BTFF) is hosting its annual Light the
Way Gala in honor of the National
Global Human Trafficking Awareness Day (NGHTAD) on January 11, 2014 at the
SunTrust Bank headquarters in Washington, DC. The event commemorates and honors
the millions of human trafficking victims around the globe. With the event theme of Discover, Witness & Act,
guests will enjoy hors d’oeuvres, cocktails, dancing, and a silent auction with
outstanding items up for bid.
A staggering 27 million men, women and children around the globe
are victims of human trafficking. The gala will raise money and awareness for this under-reported crisis. All proceeds will go directly
to support survivors in our community and will provide life-saving programs
including personal and professional development, college prep and job
readiness, and violence prevention.
