Ryane's Ride Against Traffic

Dear friends, family, and interested people,

Did you know Seoul is a global hub for human trafficking? Migrants, orphans, and runaways are targeted and exploited in the sex industry in Korea.

Ride Against Traffick is a growing group of justice seekers who envision the end of this modern-day slavery. Started in 2012, the Ride is a 4-day, 550 km bike ride from Busan to Seoul to raise awareness and funds for human trafficking issues.

We are a modern-day abolitionist movement. Our vision is to raise awareness, raise individuals, and rouse the Church for the cause of justice in Korea. We have raised over $100,000 (100 million KRW) for organizations actively fighting for justice: Oak Tree Project, a scholarship-mentorship program for orphans; and HOPE Be Restored, an anti-trafficking ministry based in Seoul.
Visit www.ratk.org for more information, and join the movement!

Please consider partnering with me financially or with prayer!
Please pray that:
-the ride will be effective in spreading awareness
-against trafficking
-that people would be blessed by encounters with dedicated bikers and support crew members
-that there will be great safety and protection while travelling

I will be a part of the support crew, helping the bikers in anyway they need along the 4 day journey. I am really excited and I hope you are too!

Thank you and may God bless you!

Ryane

여러분은 서울이 전세계적으로 성매매의 허브라는 걸 아십니까? 이주민, 고아, 가출청소년등이 한국에서 성매매 산업에 타겟으로 부당하게 이용당하고 있습니다.
성매매근절 자전거종단은 현대시대 노예제도를 없애고자 하는 그룹으로 매년 성장하고 있습니다. 2012년을 시작으로 4일동안 부산에서 서울까지 550Km를 자전거로 종단하여 성매매 문제에 대한 인식을 높이고 희생자들을 위한 기금을 마련하고 있습니다.

우리는 현대 노예제도폐지운동을 하고 있습니다. 이 운동의 비전은 성매매에 대한 관심을 고취시키고, 한국에서 정의에 대한 개개인과 교회의 참여를 깨우는 것입니다. 우리는 사회정의를 위해 서울에서 활동하고 있는 참나무프로젝트(보육원학생들을 위한 장학금과 멘토링프로그램)와 HOPE Be Restored(성매매 근철 사역)라는 두 단체를 위해 지금까지 1억원의 기금을 모금했습니다.

The Ride Against Traffick is a four day, 550km bike ride from Busan to Seoul intended to raise awareness of the problem of human trafficking in South Korea and to fight it.

Your donations will go to two great organizations who are actively working to combat this modern-day evil: Hope Be Restored, which is one of the leading anti-trafficking ministries in Korea, and Oak Tree Project, which is a scholarship and mentoring program for orphans in Korea. The ride costs are paid completely by the participants and sponsors, so 100% of the money we receive from your donation will go straight to these organizations.
