# United Unions Attends the Sunrise for Children Gala: A Night of Hope and Advocacy
Recently, our team at United Unions had the distinct honor of attending the Sunrise for Children Gala, an event dedicated to raising awareness and fighting against the tragic crises of human trafficking and child slavery. This non-profit organization is a beacon of hope for oppressed children, both locally in Washington and around the globe. The evening was not only a celebration of their mission but also a call to action for all of us to support these vulnerable communities.
Sunrise for Children is deeply committed to providing assistance and advocacy for victims, and their vision is to shine a light of hope in the darkest situations. Their work is vital, and as we gathered at the gala, it was clear that the dedication to this cause is shared by many passionate individuals and organizations.
Among the notable guests were esteemed members of the Labor Union community, each of whom has made significant contributions to labor rights and community support. Norma Valdez, the Executive Director of Los Angeles Labor Community Services, has been an incredible force in uplifting workers and their families. Larry Barragan, President of the SoCal Port Maritime Council, continues to advocate for the rights and welfare of maritime workers. Joel Barton, Chairman of South County Labor, has tirelessly fought for fair labor practices and community engagement.
The evening was filled with inspiring speeches, heartfelt testimonials, and a strong sense of unity among attendees. Each speaker underscored the importance of our collective efforts to combat the injustices faced by children around the world. Their words resonated with everyone present, reminding us that while the issues are daunting, together we can create meaningful change.
As representatives of United Unions, we were moved by the stories shared that night. It reinforced our commitment to not only support labor rights but also to extend our advocacy to fight for the most vulnerable members of our society—our children.
We are proud to stand alongside organizations like Sunrise for Children, working hand in hand to create a future where every child is free from the shackles of exploitation. The gala was a powerful reminder that our actions matter, and by raising awareness, we can contribute to a larger movement for justice and compassion.
Thank you to Sunrise for Children for hosting such a remarkable event, and to all the advocates, union leaders, and community members who joined us in this critical fight. Together, we can be the change we wish to see in the world.
