Invisible Screening & Place of Hope Benefit Event

Description

October 24th is United Nations Day.

In recognition of this day, and in partnership with Edward Jones, Venture X will be hosting a screening of Invisible courtesy of Place of Hope.

Invisible is a documentary exposing the epidemic of human trafficking happening right here in our own backyards. Human trafficking is a form of modern slavery where people profit from the control and exploitation of others. Florida ranks 3rd in the nation for reported cases of human trafficking.

Place of Hope is the largest faith-based family-style, state-licensed children’s organization in the region. Children and families can find dignity, guidance and hope through various programs and efforts at Place of Hope – Placing Hope in a Child’s Future. From foster care, to post-care programs, their mission to make a meaningful impact in the community.

Refreshments will be served in partnership with our sponsors; Scott Doyno from Edward Jones, SEO.co, and Venture X – Rosemary Square.
