Students at Grace College are hosting a stand against human trafficking starting March 21.
The stand begins at 4 p.m and ends March 22 at 7 p.m. They are asking people in the community to rise and stand with them as they fight one of the biggest industries in the world.
They have a goal of ten people standing per hour, so they can have a total of 270 people standing. They are asking each person who stands to give $5 toward their goal of $2,700, and to ask people to financially support them as they stand.
The event will occur in Alpha Hall lobby and coat room.
