Couple Inspires Kindess For The A21 Campaign Through Generous Act

  Today I came across one of the sweetest stories and videos I've seen online. It was about a young couple who got engaged and married all on the same day. The groom had been planning it for almost a year and secretly viewing all the wedding ideas that his bride had been pinning on pinterest for what she wanted for her own wedding. He not only used all her ideas but got all of her family and friends in on it and flew them down to Miami to be a part of it all. You can read the full story by clicking HERE. But the reason I'm telling you about all this is because of their very generous act. This couple decided that in lieu of wedding gifts, they would ask their guests to donate to an organization that is very important to them called the A21 campaign. The A21 Campaign is an organization that fights to end human trafficking through educating the public and raising awareness, prosecuting violators and providing shelter and homes  to victims so they can transition back into society. You can read more about this organization and see some of the very real and very scary stats at their website, thea21campaign.org.
I was inspired by this couples willingness to forgo wedding gifts and money so that A21 could benefit and because of that, today I also made a donation to the organization. I hope you'll read up a little bit about human trafficking and sadly, how prevalent it is today. Maybe you will be moved to do something as well.

I also wanted to share the sweet, sweet video that got this whole ball rolling today... Enjoy!
