The National Center for Missing Adults (NCMA) and Let's Bring Them Home (LBTH) announce the "Let's Bring Them Home" campaign for Missing Adults. Each day in the United States there are roughly 2,500 reports of people going missing... and the families effected by these tragedies all too often discover that not only do their missing adult loved ones receive little media coverage and public assistance, but the issues surrounding their loved ones disappearance go unaddressed... leading the cases to grow cold. In an effort to bring national media attention and funding to these cases, NCMA/LBTH have launched the "Let's Bring Them Home" campaign for the missing. This campaign calls for 1,000 participants to join this national effort to raise awareness and funding on behalf of missing adults. Every participant will be included in local, state and national press releases and featured on the NCMA/LBTH websites: theyaremissed.org and lbth.org. In addition, participants will be included in the "Let's Bring Them Home" radio, television and print media campaign and be assigned an NCMA/LBTH advocate to assist in their efforts to raise awareness. In order to help families of missing adults raise awareness and funding NCMA has created a special web page for every missing adult that is registered on theyaremissed.org. You will find a fundraising link on your loved one's profile page. NCMA is challenging 1,000 participants to pledge $12.50 per month for 12 months, or to pledge a one time gift of $150. All donations are 100% tax deductible and willl allow NCMA/LBTH to both continue and expand services that benefit the families of missing adults such as: Case Management Support Groups Hotline/Tipline Clearinghouse Management Other events surrounding the "Let's Bring Them Home" campaign include: local, state and national events including a march on Washington scheduled for the spring of 2010. NCMA also encourages state clearinghouses and nonprofit organizations that serve families of missing adults to get involved. For more information, to donate, or to find out how you, your business, family, or organization can participate, contact Amy Smith at letsbringthemhome@gmail.com or visit lbth.org or theyaremissed.org. Together we can make a difference for missing adults. Let's Bring Them Home! |
