Today is International Women’s Day!  There are many great ways to empower women around the world and shopping at Stop Traffick Fashion is one of them.  Our products are made by survivors of human trafficking and enable them to earn a sustainable income in order to support themselves and their families.  In addition to the financial benefit, the accompanying work and sense of accomplishment give the women a new sense of dignity and confidence!

We also came across this great note from World Vision about how a former sponsored girl in their program is now tutoring children in the slums of India.  It’s all because someone sponsored her that she was able to accomplish what she has and move on to help others!  Sponsoring a young girl can change her life and cause a ripple effect for years to come.  Sponsor a child today.

What are some other ways you can empower women? We’d love to hear them!  Please leave some comments and let us know your ideas.  Remember, a small step can lead to big change!

Emily founded Stop Traffick Fashion in 2009. She’d been becoming more and more involved in the abolitionist movement, and she decided to start STF as an opportunity to bring together the best of all products made by survivors of trafficking. She hopes her response to trafficking will inspire others to take action, even in a small way. Emily lives in Cincinnati, enjoys traveling, and has visited Hagar International and StopStart in Cambodia.
