Getting Geared up for Branded Ride
As most of you know I'm involved with a group called 'branded' (visit: www.brandedphx.com) and on Saturday we are having our FIRST annual motorcycle ride. We are working to stop child prostitution right here in Phoenix and are partnering with other cities in the country who are trying to combat the same problem. I could leave you all the stories, statistics, quotes, etc right here but then you would go visit our site so please, please, please go check it out! We don't know how many people we are going to have on Saturday but we are praying for LOTS! The money is so needed right now. It is used to feed, clothe, rehabilitate, and rescue these underage children who have been FORCED into prostitution. People think that those who are doing the unthinkable, the inhumane, are doing it because they want to, because they don't WANT to get out, and it's not true. The average age of entry into forced prostitution is 13 years old...THIRTEEN. We need to help, we need to rescue, we need to educate, we need to make it STOP! Go to the website to read more or feel free to ask me questions! The more we know the more we can help!
PLEASE VISIT BRANDEDPHX.COM
Pray for the vice squads that are trying to protect. Pray for the girls that are out on the street tonight. Pray that those who know about the ride on Saturday will come and that they will spread the word so we can raise money and awareness.
THANK YOU!

Wow Jessi, you are truly an angel and someone I am admire so much. I truly believe it takes a special person to really know what is going on, know the stories, the ends and outs and keep your feet where they need to be and move forward. This is something that makes me cry and hurt. I will check out the site! Thanks for sharing and for being such an angel to these children.
If I was there I would come
