Half-way through my “Move for Amirah” supporting women exiting sex trafficking. It has been a “Long Walk” indeed. Still time to donate and to try to connect with @StephenKing whose book inspired my “Move”

It’s time to Move for Amirah again! Please consider donating as we continue to help women exit sex trafficking. I’ll be walking 108 miles continuously for 36 hours. My “Move” is inspired by “The Long Walk” by Stephen King, so if you know him, let me know!
Help support "Move for Amirah" a fundraiser to help women exit sex trafficking. This year, I'm biking 100 miles - 50 miles on 6/6 and 50 on 6/7 to raise awareness and funds, while taking on a challenge to move in solidarity with the women we serve: https://t.co/qLPucroASN
The Boston Bruins Foundation is partnering with us @AmirahInc for this year's "March to a Million" 50/50 raffle. Here is your chance to win big while supporting the effort to help women exit sex trafficking. Buy your tickets early and often!

So….the payout isn’t as big as one if the crazy Megamillions jackpots, but the odds are WAY better, and it raises funds for a great team! $100 per ticket for a chance to win $10k.
Thanks and good luck in advance to all my friends who like the thrill of the lottery!
@davidwade At a reunion at Amherst College, I went to a seminar called “Is Amherst worth it?” - looked at post-grad school test scores, grad school admissions, starting salaries, etc of Ivy League + colleges like Amherst, Williams vs other schools. Only difference: connections made there.
We were excited that our Executive Director, Mary Speta, and our Director of Development, Chet Harding, were able to sit down with Brad Small, head of the Solomon Fund. Thank you to the Solomon Fund. We are so grateful to you and our Amirah community for making our work possible.
We are celebrating a woman starting a vocational certification program, and we couldn't be happier. Pursuing higher education is a huge milestone and one that will help our participant create more economic stability and independence for herself. #milestone#monday
I loved receiving this note - made my entire holiday season! If you are considering end of year giving, please consider donating to Amirah, Inc. As you can see, it can have a direct impact on changing someone’s life, helping them leave exploitation for a better future.
We are setting up a unit for a participant to begin her new life from exploitation into freedom. This is one of three women we are welcoming into our programs before the end of the year. We are grateful to our Amirah community for making this transition possible for her.
Economic stability is crucial to independence after sex trafficking, and education can be a huge part of that. We are thrilled to be celebrating with a woman in one of our residential programs as she just completed her associate's degree!

RIP, Freddie Ronan. One of my favorite nights was watching @jimmykimmel and @realjeffreyross prank call Freddie late night as other members of the dais after a Comedy Central Roast. A prank call from “George Wallace” was hysterical and yet Freddie handled it graciously.
