Event summary

Join us for the inspiring event "Illuminate the Fight" on Saturday, September 14th, 2024, in Pittsburgh, Allegheny, where we will walk the RMU track on Neville Island to raise awareness about the critical issues of human trafficking and child exploitation. This free event invites participants to come together as a community to support The Asservo Project in their mission to protect our children.

Walkers can choose between two options: the _ILLUMINATOR_, where you can raise funds per lap walked, or the _GUARDIAN_, perfect for those who prefer to walk just 1-2 laps while still contributing to this important cause. With the average age of a trafficked child being just 14 years old, it's vital that we unite to shine a light on these pressing issues. Together, let's take a stand and make a difference in the lives of our youth in this digital age. Will you help us Illuminate the Fight?

Organiser's description

We will be walking the RMU track on Neville Island to raise awareness of human trafficking and child exploitation. This is a free event where you are encouraged to fundraise to raise support for The Asservo Project and their ongoing efforts to protect our children.

The average age of a child to be trafficked is 14 years old. As individuals and as a community we can choose to rise up and raise awareness to what our kids and teens now face in this digital age, or we can choose to walk away and do nothing.

We challenge you to come by yourself or to form a team and raise funds and awareness.

_ILLUMINATOR_- this option is for individuals who want to raise funds per lap they will be walking.

_GUARDIAN_- this option is for individuals who want to come but only walk 1-2 laps and want to simply raise funds for themselves/their team.

We can't fight this alone, we need your help. Will you help us Illuminate the Fight?
