TAMPA: Within the last few years, high profile cases of labor trafficking and trafficking for the sex trade have made headlines in the Bay Area, including the June 22nd arrest of a Largo man for felony human trafficking.
Hoping to change this are the Florida Coalition Against Human Trafficking and Youth for Human Rights of Florida.
These groups are the co-producers of a fashion show called “Colors of the World.” This fashion show will feature ethical, fair trade and ecofashion. The event is scheduled for Saturday, July 16th, from 11am to 2pm and will include refreshments and fashion items to purchase, along with the fashion show.

Tickets are $30 per person and all proceeds will benefit the fight against human trafficking.
