Students at Hickman High School in Columbia, Missouri raised $3,000.00 for the work of the Central Missouri Stop Human Trafficking Coalition through their court warming activities this winter. What an amazing gift! We are grateful for their hard work and their passion  to make their world a better and more humane place!

The money will be used to continue to fund needed services for survivors of human trafficking, and to provide community outreach and professional training on this problem.
