A wise person once said; "There are four words that can often mean the difference between the fear of failure and the courage to try - I BELIEVE IN YOU." Jenny McGee, of the Starfish Project, takes that message to the women she serves in East Asia who are exploited and trafficked; and empowers them to begin new lives. Daily, she goes into the brothels of the city and offers an alternative for women who have either been forced into trafficking, or felt like they had no other options. Through education, counseling, and economic solutions, the Starfish Project is transforming lives and restoring hope to exploited women. Jenny also shares what it's like to say "'yes,' without knowing the rest," in answering the call to help women in the most desperate of situations, and how she finds her resolve through strong mentors and the support of her family.
