FINDING HOPE THROUGH ART 50% of the 27,000,000 people that are enslaved today are youth under 18 years old. We try to promote art therapy and provide the arts/music to trafficked/exploited youth.
We just believe that it is necessary to help out those who can't even have the most basic rights, like freedom of expression. Since we can not "rescue" trafficked youth, we would like to help them cope with their emotional scars by promoting art therapy and we wish that art will give them hope for the future.

CARDS OF HOPE - Ever since January 2010, World To Form participates in sending at least 200 cards to a selected "prisoner of conscience" each month. A "prisoner of conscience" is someone who is imprisoned and had his/her human rights violated or someone who is imprisoned for fighting for human rights, like lawyers, organizations, etc. Some of these prisoners even were brutally tortured and mistreated. Journalists, Aung San Suu Kyi, and many more are who we try to send little cards of hope to give them inspiration and well wishes. The cards vary: we have sent them to Uzbekistan, Mexico, Washington D.C. and in many different languages as well.
Even if the prisoners of conscience do not receive the cards, we hope the recipient/wrongdoer will know that people DO care and know about his/her injustice. We hope the quantity of 200 cards will hold their attention.
ART EXHIBIT - We will have an art exhibit around December 2010, showcasing the artworks that the youth at Covenant House Hollywood made with our donated art supplies.
PEN PAL PROGRAM - We are looking for a shelter that houses trafficked/exploited youth. The youth would be partnered to World to Form members and they would exchange letters, pictures, care packages, etc.
