DfG Brings Some TLC to Survivors of Sex Trafficking in South Korea

Amy Brzezinski is new to the DfG team, but like many other DfG team members, she's dived right in. Amy recently shared this note and these photos with DfG Headquarters. Here is more about Amy's project, in her own words:



Dear Days for Girls,

I first heard about your organization back in April after a friend shared that she had attending a sewing party.  I was immediately interested and knew that I would be sewing for girls.  I printed all the instructions and patterns, made a notebook, began reading everything and emailing Jan.  Thank you Jan for all of your help!

I bought fabric and began to share this burgeoning desire to do something.  Over coffee I blurted out my new found dream to my sister in law.  She very quickly encouraged me and a plan was made to send kits to House of Hope, in Pohang, South Korea.  House of Hope is a group home for survivors of sex-trafficking with special attention to those who are pregnant.

Working with several friends we made 40 complete sets that my sister in law is delivering this week.   I printed the distribution instructions and sent those along.  Our friend, who is Korean, will do the presentation.  

It has been an absolute blessing working on this project.  It’s amazing thinking of all of the hands and hearts that have come together to love these girls from afar.

We are now preparing for our next adventure.... 50 kits for India!

Thank you, Amy, for your beautiful work, and for sharing your story with us!
