Kristina Wolf Design, East Bay interior designer, recently united with Free the Girls, a non-profit organization that supports rescued female victims of sex trafficking in Africa. It is a way to widen the meaning of community and big-heartedness this New Year.
Kristina Wolf said that the holidays are a perfect time for reflection and gratitude and they are conscious of the enormous good fortune they have had in 2011, so they would like to give back in 2012.
Free the Girls offer the chance for female victims of sex trafficking to put back their lives together and start anew. The organization does not merely present cash donations to these women and run off them to sink or swim on their own; fairly, it empowers these women by providing them the means and assistance they call for to create their own small businesses and consequently support them as an individual.
The central campaign of Free the Girls is their bra drive, which encourages women around the world to donate their used brassieres to contribute inventory for the victims’ second-hand clothing businesses. Bras have also been established by the program to be popular items in the used clothing industry, with a number of women taking home a well and good profit that is about five times the minimum wage in their area.
All donations go directly to the job-creation projects of Free the Girls. In connection to this, Kristina Wolf Design will sponsor a bra drive this 2012 to further raise consciousness in the East Bay area, and to congregate both monetary and brassiere donations for the campaign.
Bay Area women are encouraged by Kristina Wolf Design to lend a hand in making a difference for their sisters in Africa. To make a donation, volunteer or receive information about Free the Girls, visit http://freethegirls.com/.
