SARATOGA SPRINGS - The Salvation Army of Saratoga Springs, located at 27 Woodlawn Ave., is hosting an awareness event called the Red Sand Project to raise awareness around the issue of human trafficking and those being exploited for sex or labor purposes for someone else’s profit. The event will take place on April 8, 2022 at 10:30 a.m., featuring The Salvation Army’s Fight for Freedom Program.
The Red Sand Project was initiated in 2014 when artist Molly Gochman recognized the need for awareness and for solutions to address trafficking. Molly created the Red Sand Project using each granule of sand as a representation for all the victims that have fallen through the cracks. Currently, The International Labor Organization estimates 40.3 million people are in modern slavery affecting communities throughout the world. This awareness event will last about an hour, featuring the Fight for Freedom Action Plan, Survivor Video, and Red Sand Pouring.
