“Bella” was rescued from human trafficking at a very young age. After a few months in survivor care, Bella’s mother let their social worker know that she didn’t want her back anymore because of what she had been through, she felt it was just easier not to have her. The social worker immediately reached out to the O.U.R. Aftercare Team to ask them to keep Bella in their thoughts that day. This social worker needed the strength to tell Bella about her mother when she got home from school that day. The Aftercare Team thought about how to help Bella feel loved and extra special. It turned out that her birthday was coming up, so they decided to throw a birthday party for her! Bella enjoyed every minute of her birthday party. She spent most of it walking around to make sure everyone was fed. Just one hour into her party she said, “If birthdays are like this, I want to live to be 1,000.” Her joy was full that day. Bella’s story is just one of several inspiring stories in our Not For Sale book, available for today only.
