We have been honored to spend the past three days on the ground in Kolkata with Freeset Global and Sari Bari, two fantastic organizations that are doing very effective work to stop the cycle of human trafficking and forced prostitution in India by providing above fair trade sustainable employment for women in the red light areas. International Princess Project is thrilled to announce that we are now partnering with Freeset Tees to produce the new IPP shirts! Just check out these beauties:
We were actually able to watch the IPP shirts being printed in Kolkata this week. That's good news for all of you who will want to purchase these great shirts: They will be shipping to the U.S. and available for purchase online in a matter of days. We have a limited number of shirts for this initial printing, so don't delay if you want to ensure your pick of size and color! In the meantime, take a look at the new shirts in production by Freeset Tees in Kolkata:

Local Child Prostitution
Posted on Feb 24, 2009 | 15 COMMENTS
This morning a quick survey of Yahoo news displayed the following headline: "FBI, police rescue child prostitutes around US". Apparantly, the FBI, with collaboration from many different police forces and district attorneys offices (including some in Southern California, where IPP is headquartered) rescued 48 suspected teenage prostitutes, some of whom were as young as 13 (associated press). They also arrested many people in conjunction with prostitution rings around the country.
Part of IPP's mission is to "Advocate for women and children forced into prostitution". It is a good reminder for everyone that child prostitution and sex trafficking are not only issues in India, or other third world countries. They are happening under our very noses in America as well. If you would like to learn more about Operation Cross County, a broader federal initiative launched in 2003 to crack down on the sexual exploitation of children, check out http://www.fbi.gov for more information.
