SUMMARY:Michigan Chapter - December Holiday Event & Charity Auction
DESCRIPTION:Charity Auction \nOur 2022 Charity is Hope Against Trafficking. \nWhen Hope Against Trafficking started\, the founders realized that there was a lack of long-term\, safe\, restorative environments for adult survivors of human trafficking. The women who have been rescued or escaped their traffickers lack hope as they have no safe-haven\, no financial stability\, and fear for their lives. \nHope Against Trafficking provides a comprehensive and dedicated program. They have taken a two-pronged approach for the restoration of survivors and education for its community. \nYou can learn more at Hope Against Trafficking. \nPlease contact Gail Major at charities@gbtamichigan.org if you’re interested in donating an item for the charity auction and don’t forget your CASH (or plastic) the night of the event! \nThank you for your support of this year’s charity\, Hope Against Trafficking! \nLocation of event \nBirmingham\, MI \nVenue Information \nDaxton Hotel\, 298 S Old Woodward Ave\, Birmingham\, MI 48009

SUMMARY:Global Business Travel Index (BTI)™: Outlook for Global Business Travel 2022 – 2026
