Creating Awareness with One Gray Dress

My hat goes off to one of my oldest and dearest friends, Amy, who was just featured on CNN for a mission she started back in November.  She decided to wear a simple gray dress for 6 months and donate the money she would have spent on clothes to The Daughter Project, an organization seeking to aid women coming out of sex slavery in the Toledo, Ohio area (incidentally ranked 4th in the country for sex trafficking).

Amy ministers to students at Bowling Green State University and her tiny mission caught fire.  Soon, 50+ girls were signing up to wear dresses for a month or two to help raise awareness.  The Daughter Project was greatly bolstered by their bravery and is looking to build a safe house for the victims sometime in the near future.  Even cooler was that CNN and other news organization caught wind of it, making Amy an overnight local celebrity.  We are so proud of her.

Six months later, the mission is over and the dress is now laid to rest, but my friend is still making waves for the daughters.  God bless her!
