An umbrella is a rather common pedestrian item one usually forgotten at the back of a closet until needed.

But when nature delivers a downpour an umbrella is our buffer, protecting us. Many girls are struggling against the storm, the storm of sexual exploitation, they’ve been kidnapped abused, sold and forgotten

Over 100,000 girls in the United States are forced to do someone’s sexual bidding and when they escape they are left alone. If we band together these girls can be protected, loved and restored. They just need a chance, they just need protection from the storm.

Wellspring Living – The White Umbrella Campaign

Sex trafficking. We hear about it on the nightly news and in special interest stories from around the world, but it occurs daily in communities all around us. Every year, thousands of young women are forced into sexual exploitation. Most are under the age of 18. The damage this causes to their emotions and souls is immeasurable, but they are not without hope.

The White Umbrella tells stories of survivors as well as those who came alongside to help them to recovery. It describes the pain and the strength of these young women and those who held the "white umbrella" of protection and purity over them on the road to restoration.

This book offers principles and guidance to anyone with a heart for these hurting young women and a desire to help. It is an ideal resource for individuals or organizations seeking to learn what they can do to assist these victims in becoming whole again.
