ALL PROCEEDS GO TO OPERATION UNDERGROUND RAILROAD
When we started this Guinness World Record attempt, it was just about the record. Then, we realized we could make this about so much more.
Operation Underground Railroad was in our thoughts already, as over 35 children were just rescued here in Georgia. Sean, the founder of Miles Through Time, and his wife Torie Mathis have always been advocates for children and animals, as they can’t fight for themselves.
O.U.R. was an easy choice for us to support with this event.
Operation Underground Railroad is a non-profit founded by Tim Ballard and Mark Stott which assists governments around the world in the rescue of human trafficking and sex trafficking victims, with a special focus on children.
We excited about our partnership with O.U.R. and are committed to supporting their mission to spread awareness and combat human trafficking, especially among children.
You can support O.U.R. with an event sponsorship or donation. All proceeds will go directly to O.U.R. and are tax-deductible.
If you have any questions or would like to get involved email sean@milesthroughtime.com
