Just Hope Tour
Whitney Atcheson
Nov. 07, 2011
Venture Expeditions is partnering with local churches and villages where slavery is all too common. To bring justice. To bring hope and to prevent slavery. Hope has two beautiful daughters. Their names are anger and courage. Anger about the way things are and courage to do something about it.” – Venture Expeditions .
And courage is what Leavenworth, WA cyclist Jacob Acheson, age 26 has. He will cycle 3267 miles from Seattle to New York City over 8 weeks to raise awareness for human slavery and trafficking with a team through Venture Expeditions. Jacob and his family have to raise over $12,000 to make this trip possible. They are just beginning fundraising, but are asking businesses and families to consider sponsoring a city for $100 across the U.S.
