  “Traveling throughout SE Asia, I came across so many young women who prostituted themselves to survive. It seemed so surreal to me, but this is a real issue that needs to be dealt with. I too want to help educate & reach out to those who need a voice.”

  “I care about the world and the rights of others. It saddens me that women many women across the world have no rights or are treated like second class citizens - they can't work, vote, voice their opinions, be comfortable in their own skin.”
