The Girl Up NorCal Coalition is excited to announce that we are hosting “Anneke Lucas: A Sex Trafficking Survivor’s Healing Journey” on Saturday, April 24th from 10:00 AM PST to 11:00 AM PST! Sex trafficking survivor and advocate Anneke Lucas will be speaking. Anneke will raise awareness around sex trafficking while sharing her story and sharing how she has found empowerment through her healing journey. A Q&A with Anneke will follow her talk.
In support of trafficking survivors, Girl Up NorCal is simultaneously hosting a raffle. All raffle proceeds will go directly to San Francisco SafeHouse, an organization that empowers and supports womxn who are experiencing housing instability and sexual exploitation or trafficking, by creating survivor-centered spaces, services, advocacy, and community education and by offering supportive traditional housing and a full array of support services.
Donors will have the chance to win raffle prizes, including a necklace, earring, and ring set (retail value $124!) from Sanctuary Project’s Rosette Medallion Collection. Sanctuary Project is a nonprofit social enterprise providing meaningful employment and job training to women who have survived lives of trafficking, violence, and addiction. They are a survivor-run organization, offering a safe community for women in transition to grow in practical skills while restoring their lives and hearts. Their jewelry is designed and packaged by the women they employ, and 100% of their sales go directly to providing more job training and job opportunities to survivors.
Every $5 donated will be considered one raffle entry. Donating is not required to attend the event, but it is highly encouraged!
Access notes: The event is hosted on Zoom, so it is entirely virtual. Unfortunately, we cannot use a transcript service for people who are hard-of-hearing, since we are not premium users with Zoom.
