Coconut Telegraph

The Selah Way Foundation has announced that NBA World Champion Trent Tucker and NFL Legend Tony Richardson will join Elizabeth Melendez Fisher, President/CEO and co-founder of Selah Freedom and Al Reynolds, COO of Selah Freedom on an Immersion Tour on Wednesday, October 10, 2018. This tour will provide insight into the journey of a survivor of sex trafficking. It provides a tangible glimpse into how innocent American children are sold on the streets, as well as how they connect with law enforcement and Outreach team liaisons, eventually bringing them into one of Selah Freedom’s safe homes. Also joining the tour is NYC entertainment attorney, Cabot Marks, Partner Marks Di Palermo and singer & actor, DeeMo.

 “I admire the work that Elizabeth and her team are doing and to have a survivor in the Selah Freedom Residential program testify against her trafficker in court and put him behind bars, makes me want to use my voice and platform to put many more offenders behind bars. This is a huge issue that effects young girls and boys from all ethnicities,” says Trent Tucker. “I am beyond thrilled to have Trent Tucker, Tony Richardson, DeeMo and Cabot Marks join us on the Immersion Tour to see our work firsthand. For me, to be able to keep helping survivors gain step into the freedom and restoration that they deserve and put offenders behind bars, is what it is all about! I know that by having additional support we will continue to increase our impact on a national level and save lives,” says Elizabeth Melendez Fisher.
