Nonprofit organization, the Creativity Shell Rochester needs your help
to Stomp out Human Trafficking in Rochester neighborhoods.
The Creativity Shell is a 501 (c)(3) nonprofit organization on a
mission to use creative trades to educate and inspire the next
generation of makers. The organization teaches sewing/textile arts
classes to students in public libraries, schools and shelters that
rescue children from homelessness and human trafficking. For
trafficking victims, the Creativity Shell uses sewing/textile arts
classes as a form of therapy to help them regain their sense of
ownership over something as small as making their own pillow.
Donations to the “STOMP OUT HUMAN TRAFFICKING” campaign can be
made online at http://rochester.creativityshell.org
[http://rochester.creativityshell.org]. By donating $20 or more to the
“Stomp Out Human Trafficking Campaign.” Rochester residents and
businesses can receive a custom yard sign that sends a message to
human traffickers that they are NOT welcomed in our neighborhoods!
Signs can be picked up at the Creativity Shell Rochester studio at
1984 Monroe Avenue (After June 7, 2018). Please bring your donation
receipt to pick up your sign.
Funds raised from the “Stomp Out Human Trafficking” Campaign will
be used to convert/renovate rooms in local shelters that rescue
children from Human Trafficking into art therapy rooms. Funds will
also be used to purchase creative materials and supplies as well as
pay for the costs of trained art therapy teachers certified to teach
victims of trauma to teach classes in human trafficking and homeless
shelters.
