Help Fight Child Sex Trafficking in America!

Running for a cause:

Grant Clark will be running a half marathon with his hands tied every month from March to December of 2024 to raise awareness for child trafficking. Too often, this crime thrives in the shadows of society, overlooked and ignored. By bringing it into the spotlight, I hope to mobilize individuals, communities, and policymakers to take concrete steps to combat trafficking and protect vulnerable children.

Help him raise $75k for Special Operations Finding Kids (SOFK). Contact him on social media (handles below) if you’d like to run with him or help advance our mission by donating. Special Operations Finding Kids is a community-based organization founded in 2017 to find missing and vulnerable children who are most at risk of being trafficked. The organization deploys boots-on-the-ground private investigators, cyber intelligence, and advocacy services to support youth and families in crisis. Since inception, SOFK has worked on over 180 cases.

More about child trafficking:

Sex trafficking is the fastest growing and second most lucrative criminal enterprise in the world. It is also the most under-reported and under-prosecuted. With access to smartphones and social media, and being easily manipulated and threatened, children have become easy prey for predators. Any minor who exchanges sexual favors for cash, drugs or anything of value, is considered a victim of sex trafficking.

Law enforcement needs the community’s help! For more information, go to https://findingkids.org/
