Join the movement to end human trafficking and support survivors.
Social Life is a community of young adults at Cape Cod Church that is passionate about making a difference in the world, and Amirah Inc. is one of our trusted community partners making that difference.
How does moving for Amirah help end human trafficking?
Human trafficking is an enormous issue that cannot be faced alone. When many people step up and make a move to support survivors, we find strength in numbers.
Did you know that less than 1% of trafficking victims ever escape?
The primary reason is a severe lack of “exit ramps” – opportunities for the exploited to get away from their traffickers. Amirah is that exit ramp! When you support Amirah, you support a woman’s recovery process to regain her life. Soon, that 1% will be a tragic figure from a distant past.
So, let’s get moving!
What we'll do:
On Saturday, June 24th we'll take a trip to Jaffrey, New Hampshire (~ 3-hour drive) and summit Mount Monadnock! Our 'move' is in solidarity with women who have tackled the challenging uphill journey of recovery.
We recommend that each person aim to fundraise $100 (either personally or through family/friends) to donate directly to Amirah. Our goal is to raise at least $2,000 together!
Here are the basics:
1) Join our trip! Register at https://bit.ly/moveforamirah23 . If you can't join the hike, you can still 'move' on your own and raise funds with our team!
3) Set Up Your Page: You can set up your own fundraising page as part of the Social Life 'Team' right here on Amirah's Mighty Cause webpage, complete with photos of you, your story, and a bit about why you chose to join the movement! Scroll back up to sign up above!
When you sign up you'll receive a Move Pack (on our hiking trip) with items like branded Move for Amirah items and some goodies from us!
4) Get the Word Out: Every Mover is committed to raising at least $100 for the survivors who have escaped and are in recovery at Amirah - but you can totally go for more! For a $100 goal, you only need two friends to give $50, 4 friends to give $25, ten friends to give $10, or any combination in between. Social Life hopes to raise $2,000 together.
Write out a list of 20 people you know who will be excited that you're Moving for Amirah and invite them to invest in your Move!
5) Get Moving: Join us Saturday, June 24, and let's hit our goal together!
