Hi Gloria!

My name is Gina. I met you in Phoenix at the A Girl’s World Is Different Conference, hosted by the Girl Scouts, and you were one of our amazing keynote speakers!

While you autographed my copy of your book, Dare to Wear Your Soul on Outside,  I told you about my daughter, Alexis, who has been giving presentations on human trafficking awareness with some other Girl Scout teens. I spoke to you about Alexis working on her Girl Scout Gold Award and creating a website for teens about human trafficking.

I am not sure if you remember me, but I am excited to report that Alexis did finish her website and earned her Gold Award in April! Her website is http://www.teensontrafficking.org.  It is a compilation of video clips, websites, movies, and information about human trafficking. Alexis hopes her web site will be viewed by thousands of teens and adults and will prevent them from falling into the traps of trafficking.

It fills my heart with joy to see my daughter and her friends, live their legacy at such a young age. It’s very inspirational watching them tackle a tough topic and do their best to make a difference.

Thanks for starting this forum to share our journeys of making a difference in the lives of others!
