Shay Mitchell, one of the stars of ABC Family's hit drama show
Pretty Little Liars, has her birthday coming up on April 10th. This year it seems she has decided to start a
crowdrise fundraiser as part of her birthday wish to help an amazing cause. Her birthday wish is to help the
Somaly Mam Foundation. It is a foundation that helps fight the trafficking and sexual exploitation of women and girls in Southeast Asia. They also offer services to help those afflicted put their lives back together alongside the resources and help they may need.
So
check it out!
Also, as an aside, much respect to her for this gesture. I hope this is a growing trend among young Hollywood. Also special thanks to Lucy Hale for the heads up on this by
sharing it with her growing fanbase to help the cause.
Also while at it, be sure to check out the
KindCampaign.
Their mission statement as shown on their website is:
Kind Campaign is an internationally recognized movement, documentary and school program based upon the powerful belief in KINDness that brings awareness and healing to the negative and lasting effects of girl-against-girl “crime.”
Something well worth checking out and discussing further as both of these topics are well within X-23's wheel house between her origin miniseries with Kimura, as well as her original portrayal in Marvel's
NYX.
