As much as I love talking about our trips to Russia, I also have a real passion for helping orphan children, in general. I am on the board of trustees for Children's HopeChest.

We are currently doing a campaign to help Russian and Moldovan girls who are vulnerable to the sex trade. If you can help, click here. My goal is to raise $2,000 and I will match that $2,000. For every dollar that is donated up to $2,000, I will match the donation. If you donate through this link, your donation will be recorded and I will match it.

Thanks for supporting these young girls as we try to keep them from entering a life of slavery.

Help us CHANGE THEIR STORY!

Priceless by Tom Davis coming out June 1

Tom Davis, CEO of Children's Hopechest is coming out with a new book June 1st. His first book was about orphans in Swaziland. This book is about sex trafficking of young girls in Russia and how a woman named Katya helps them. I've just read the prologue and the first chapter. It looks like another page turner.

In case you think that the issue of human trafficking and the sex trade is exaggerated, I talked to a friend the other day who worked with a couple of orphanages in Russia. She said that not only are girls just out of the orphanage involved, but sometimes girls as young as 11 or 12 are involved.

Tom also just returned from a trip to Russia and Moldova where he found that not only are claims not exaggerated, but that they may actually be underestimated.

Tom's new book is called Priceless. Learn more at www.Sheispriceless.com. The go to the Children's Hopechest web site and make a donation to help save girls in Russia and Moldova. Give them options. Give them hope.
