    About ICA

    International Crisis Aid began in 2000 by delivering humanitarian aid to "no-go" regions of war-torn Southern Sudan. Since then, ICA's programs have expanded to include feeding, medical, orphanages, disaster relief, girls' schools, community development, and rescue from sex trafficking. As an established non-profit, ICA serves children and families in need from Cambodia, Ethiopia, Afghanistan, Pakistan, North Korea, Indonesia, and Sudan.

    Sex Trafficking in the United States

    DateTuesday, September 8, 2009 at 10:04PM tagged , , in ,

    With the countdown to the 5K Run for Freedom winding down, we thought you might enjoy a snip from a documentary that explains the phenomenon of sex trafficking in the United States.  Cargo: Innocence Lost explores how the business of sex trafficking has become a $9 billion dollar a year industry and why it still remains a shrouded crime in our nation.  The full documentary features "compelling interviews with some of the country’s top officials on the subject, victims’ advocates and victims themselves, who were rescued in Texas." 

    CARGO INNOCENCE LOST- DECEPTION

    We hope you get a chance to check out this great work and become inspired to help International Crisis Aid establish the first home for domestic victims of this horrible crime by running (or walking) in the 5K Run/Walk for Freedom on September 19 from 7:00-10:00am on the campus of Saint Louis University.  You can click HERE to pre-register for the race.
