Dear Friends,

I would like to invite you to a very special evening, a fundraising event that I am organizing to benefit two important non-profit organizations that fight child trafficking and sexual exploitation: The Redlight Children Campaign and Thao Dan Children’s Charity.

As many of you are probably aware, child trafficking is a global epidemic that affects hundreds of thousands of innocent children every year. It is an outrage that must be stopped and both Redlight Children and Thao Dan work tirelessly to raise awareness of the issue, fight for the childrens’ rights, care for and rehabilitate those victimized by it, and protect those who are vulnerable to falling prey to it.
Please find our formal invitation below and check out our event website, http://redlightchildren.org/nightofawareness for additional details. It is going to be a wonderful night with delicious food and beverages provided by several of the top Asian restaurants in the city, compelling guest speakers, and special music performances by NYC’s Miss Lucy Woodward and Grammy Nominated Ed Bennett. There will also be a silent auction which will include artwork made by the street children that Thao Dan works with in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.

Tickets are $100 in advance and can be purchased on our website either by paypal or check. Please note that 100% of the event’s proceeds will be going directly to Redlight Children and Thao Dan to help them continue their important work.

I am truly hoping you can make it and that you will invite all your friends and colleagues as well. Your attendance and donations will make a significant and lasting difference in the lives of these victimized children.
Best regards,
Trang Kelly
