Dear Friends,
I’m excited to let you know that a generous ministry partner has awarded HopeChest a $20,000 grant to stop sex trafficking in Russia and challenged us to match it by midnight, December 31.
Since that’s just 2 days away, I need your help (and voice) to help meet this challenge.
I sent an e-mail out earlier today to our supporters, and posted on my blog at http://www.cthomasdavis.com.
Your gift supports programs that have rescued many girls from forced prostitution. These programs saved Katya, and may have saved her best friend Nadya. Sadly, Nadya’s life ended while working as a prostitute at a truck stop. Read more about their stories at:

If we meet this challenge, we can release $40,000 to support programs that protect girls from forced prostitution in Russia.
Your gift supports our Ministry Centers, Family Centers, Independent Living Centers, and other specialized outreaches that protect orphans. Through caring relationships and proven program models, we can help transform them into beautiful and healthy young adults. Make your gift at:

When you give, you are helping stop sex trafficking in Russia before it starts. You’re helping HopeChest stay ahead of the prostitution rings that are targeting vulnerable orphans.
Imagine the horror of sex trafficking for a moment. A young girl leaves behind the rough orphanage life only to find herself tricked and trapped in sexual slavery–the worst of fates.
Our community centers and living programs in Russia offer not only a safe haven, but Christian role models to show the way. This network of people and places needs your support, and I urge you to help us meet this challenge and raise $40,000 for the children of Russia.
We can create these pockets of light in the darkness. Together, we can take back what the enemy has slated for destruction. The future of many young girls is at stake. They need your help today.
For the Fatherless,
Tom
CEO, HopeChest
P.S. Please consider a gift to HopeChest to meet this year end challenge and raise $40,000 to prevent sex-trafficking in Russia. Make it a monthly commitment to help girls all year round. Go to:
