For the MeckGOP's January service project, we are honoring National Slavery & Human Trafficking Prevention Month by assembling backpacks and gift baskets for Hope for Justice. These bags and baskets are distributed to human trafficking survivors to help them acclimate and have basic comforts. We will collect items at all of our Republican events through now until our Precinct Meetings on Saturday, February 11. Our Special Events team will present the assembled bags to Hope for Justice to spread some cheer and necessities for trafficking survivors in the Charlotte metro area.
