Dosed.

Hey guys!

Thanks so much to everyone who has donated!! And thanks also to everyone who has sent warm wishes and thoughts my way. Your support has been greatly appreciated. Thanks to my friends and acquaintances who have donated on UG, my friends and family here in Indiana, and my own hard work, I've been able to pay my first installment of $1500 toward my trip. I still have another $1500 to go, though! If you're feeling especially generous this Holiday season, I humbly ask for your donations. Any amount helps, and it all adds up!

If you're still confused about what I will be doing, allow me to clarify. I will be traveling to Cambodia, Thailand, and Laos to study human sex trafficking. I will be working in shelters for boys and girls recently rescued from brothels, where they have been exploited, sold, and abused. In addition, I will be participating in research concerning the mental health of these victims. This is incredibly critical to my trip, as little information is available concerning the mental status and effective treatment of this population. I plan on keeping a blog to update all of my supporters on my experiences. It would be my dream come true to travel overseas to work with this population, and I am hopeful that I will be able to do so come May.

Thanks again for all of your support. Please continue to think of me or send a little encouraging message my way. You can donate or write me a note here: http://www.youcaring.com/mission-tr...afficking/29080

Hope all of you are doing well. I owe you guys big time!
