June 30, 2009 — GEMS: Girls Educational and Mentoring Services, the nation’s largest survivor-led organization serving American girls and young women who have experienced sex trafficking and commercial sexual exploitation, is joining forces with Beyoncé Knowles, Halle Berry, Demi Moore, Sinead O’Connor, Mary J Blige, Katie Ford and women across America for its Girls Are Not for Sale campaign. Kicking off July 7th with the Netflix debut of the critically acclaimed Showtime documentary ‘Very Young Girls’, the campaign will use e-activism, live events, all-star artist collaborations and other initiatives to promote girls empowerment and education as critical tools in the fight against child traffickers and pimps who victimize between 100,000 and 300,000 American children and teens each year.
