And for your listening & viewing pleasure …
This announcement just came in from the SOLD Project:
Great News! Through a private donor The SOLD Project has received $50,000 to complete the film! This takes care of all of our expenses on the film side… meaning that from now on every penny we raise is directed straight towards The SOLD Project Non Profit Organization!
The SOLD Project identified three contributing factors that push children into a life of exploitation, and developed a way to Re:Act to each of these.
1) Children from Impoverished Villages of Thailand are at high risk of Prostitution, and therefore education is key to prevention through The SOLD Project Scholarship Fund.
2) Street Children are left vulnerable without a family structure to protect them, and The SOLD Project partnered with VCDF to support their orphanages and drop-in center.
3) Undocumented Burmese Children have no legal protection from exploitation and The SOLD Project partnered with Whispering Seed to support their orphanage that provides a home for these children at-risk of or rescued from trafficking.
Just recently, The SOLD Project Scholarship Fund was launched and now 17 children in the Maelao District of Chiang Rai have sponsors!
Please join us in celebrating this, and will you consider financially partnering with us? Remember that from here on, every penny we raise is for the non-profit!
$35 covers tuition for one year.
$50 provides lunch for one year.
$500 per month provides a teachers salary.If you would like more information on the (3) ways to Re:Act, please contact us at contact@thesoldproject.com.
