Yes Week

For a few years this problem has come into my radar, and for years i've felt bad wanted to do something about it and then got busy and gone back to my life, forgetting slavery even exsisted.
Then this year in october a guy by the name of Joel Parke, just a regular guy with a heart to see change, decided to create an event to raise money to buy out victims and rehabilitate them, and essentially give them back a life.
And him being the quirky character that he is came up with Yes Week... I'll let him explain what it is...





...so anyway... as all this was happening, my brother turned to me and said "lets do this, because just thinking that something needs to be changed, doesn't make it happen"
so we started finding dares and trying to get the word out and raise money and what not...
we were expecting to get a few little dares, to raise a couple hundred dollars and thats it.
then things changed...
when my brother and i were dared to do something crazy, something that would take a year to finish rather than just a week. and we embarked on our quest...

peace,
Jorj
