I posted an image of Lian that I made for the CCA, and I just wanted to alert you all to this cause, as it is going to begin taking donations on January 11th.

The Problem

There are currently 27 million enslaved people worldwide- more than double the number of enslaved Africans during the trans-Atlantic slave trade. UNICEF estimates that 1.2 million children every year are sold into slavery, most of it sexual. The US Department of Justice estimates 16,000 victims of human trafficking are brought into the United States every year.

The Project

Web Comic Creators from all over the world are working together on a single drawing which will be available as a downloadable wallpaper for readers who donate to our fund raising drive!

The thought of children being sold into sexual slavery pretty much makes my blood boil. I’ll be adding another banner shortly above the blog to remind you, but please consider donating to this cause to help raise awareness and end this horrible practice. You’ll get a pretty cool wallpaper to boot. A little preview here below.
