Why ACTS?

500 girls are trafficked for sex in Atlanta per month. That's just one city in the US. And in one city alone, that's 6,000 girls a year. There are approximately 115,000 abortions worldwide per day. That's 42 million per year. 83% is in developing countries. Only about 1% of abortions are performed because of rape. Almost half of the people in the world live on less than $2.50 a day. That's almost 3 billion people. 80% of humanity lives on less than $10. 22,000 children die due to poverty per day. An estimated 5.8 million children were included in the 3.2 million child abuse reports.

This can be prevented. Why do these kids have to suffer? We need to take a stand and stop these inhumane injustices. And we need to start today.

ACT OUT. ACT NOW. Stop the pain.
