Through her life, she has faced many trials and tribulations—abandonment, abuse, assault, and being part of the broken foster care and adoption system in America. Yet, she has overcome all of these obstacles stacked against her to become a strong woman, thriving today. Dana, is a light of hope to many as she shares her story of being kidnapped from her birth family in a rice sack in India unaware of plans of her being child trafficked. Her mission is two-fold: to end the business of human trafficking and scour the Earth to find her birth parents, who she hasn’t seen in decades. She is not alone in raising awareness to help prevent, or at least, help those victimized by child trafficking, forgotten in orphanages, living in shelters, lost in foster home systems, and abused in adoptions.The main reason why she started this journey publicly and shares her story openly is in hope of returning to the beginning of her life before the rice sack and the loss of her birth family and identity. She wants to find them. Look them in their eyes and see her reflection. She wants to journey to India to find her birth family before the last spark of her joyful beginnings burn out, and she has to make peace with living the rest of her life with this mystery. Would you help her to not only make this starting point a movement for change, but to also take it across the globe on a journey of discovering the family she has lost? Help her to be the voice that speaks on behalf of so many other children and parents who cannot. Her goal is to do a documentary film on this journey, so you can see how your support makes a difference for her healing and for bringing hope to those she meets along the way.Read more about this authorRead less about this author
