WAR Chest Boutique
The Committed Necklace is handmade with hope by rescued women and designed to connect an advocate like you to a survivor in the trafficking hubs of Asia. It’s easy to become paralyzed by the enormity of human trafficking, and we can forget there are real people behind the numbers. The Committed Necklace reminds you, the wearer, that every survivor has a face. Each is a person with a heart and a soul, worthy of love and belonging. The Committed Necklace is a movement of change. It is not one but two necklaces one for you, and one created from the inside heart of your necklace and gifted to a woman during outreach in the red light districts.
As our partners place the delicate heart around her neck, they whisper a promise of hope and invite her into their program. They tell her that somewhere in another city or country there is a person wearing the other half of her necklace, a person who is committed to remembering her and investing in her future through their purchase. Your gift of a heart speaks the truth that she is neither forgotten nor alone. It sparks courage and opens up the door to freedom. Thank you for living out your commitment to ending injustice one life and one necklace at a time!
