I am going to India in January with Faceless International. Faceless International is an organization I am very active with that travels the world educating people and eradicating the 7 billion dollar sex trade industry piece by piece.

Young women and children are being sold first as virgins at their highest value, then after they have been stripped of their innocence, they are continuously raped, contracting diseases, being beaten and much worse, killed.

It broke my heart, as i have a little brother and sister and I just can imagine what these brave kids are forced to go through while many of us in the United States go through life never exposed to that trauma. Instead, we worry about things like high gas prices, what were going to eat today, rent, mortgages etc. Basically, we are very fortunate and I for one have never taken that for granted.

These women and children have absolutely no self esteem or skill level to do normal jobs, simply because they are not skilled enough, so most of them continue on in the only lifestyle they know.... prostitution. When they speak to you, they look down because the shame has prevented them from looking people directly in the eye.

This is where you come in, and where I begin. I have already worked with many people and finalized an incredible design that is being used on hand bags, t-shirts and much more. These items are being created by these women and children from scratch and we are in turn selling them to raise money for these women and their children and the children who are parentless. In teaching these new trades they are learning skills that create a living for themselves so that they never have to sell their bodies or souls again.

You will be able to purchase these soon, however what Im writing about is you representing me and sponsoring as YOUR ambassador to go save lives and save these children from further harm. I have used iReport to speak my mind on many subjects and made a lot of new friends via CNN so as your iReporter, I am only asking that if you feel compelled to help, you do so, if not, then all I ask is that you educate yourself via the links below.

A little about Danny Casler...

I am not wealthy by any means. I come from a lower/middle class family. I had very little of anything growing up and this is the reason I feel so emotional and physically as well as spiritually compelled to help these women & children. I am NOT ASKING for a hand out, but I am letting you know that if you have a spare dollar, $5, $20 whatever the amount is, I have created a PayPal account for things like this. I obviously will be paying the difference out of my pocket to make plane ticket/expenses which will be in the thousands (thanks to higher gas prices etc). Anything to subsidize this would be a blessing. I know that sounds a little like a contradiction because I don’t want sound like a weak person by asking for help, but I am humbled by this, I want YOU to be as well and to be frank, I don’t mind asking for help from others that will go towards helping other people who cant ask for help because because they either don’t have the platform or the ability to do so.

If all you can do is say... "Danny, i think its awesome what your doing" That is as good as supporting this mission as any amount of money is, because it shows me you support me and this venture and our organization.

I will also be contacting CNN to do an iReport on this trip.
