Human Traffiking Event at UCE May 16th

'Human Trafficking' Information Fundraising Evening on Sunday, May 16, 6:30
- 8:30 at the Unitarian Church, 10806 - 119 street, Edmonton. View an
award winning documentary, hear expert speakers, enjoy desserts and coffee,
and contribute to the charitable organizations that are offering solutions
by bidding on art works at a silent auction. Tickets are $10.00 at the
door. Sponsored by Women in Black and the Unitarian Church Social Justice
Committee.


Human Trafficking is modern day slavery, a crime of mammoth proportions
around the world. There are more slaves today than in 1861, at the height
of the slave era under colonialism. The money made from trafficking human
beings for sex and forced labour is more than the international drug trade.
It is happening here in Canada, too.
