ZOE Rescue Walk - November 10, 2012

On Saturday, November 10th, a walk was held to raise funds for ZOE.  ZOE is an international Christian organization that provides safe homes to orphans and children in danger.  This danger comes from a growing threat of human trafficking.  Over 27 million people are being trafficked right now, and 1.8 million of them are children.  ZOE has a home located in Thailand that houses more than 60 rescued children.  Over 750 participants came out to walk and show their support.  In addition to the walk, there was a silent auction.  Bags and t-shirts were given to participants.  The bags were made by people who were rescued from trafficking.  Victims are making these bags as a means of learning to support themselves.  The event was held at Newhall Park.
