Thank you for your recent efforts to join the petition<\/a> to stop human trafficking at Wyndham Hotels. As of today, 11,699 people<\/strong> have signed.<\/p>\n

More importantly, according to the petition editor,”ECPAT-USA is in very positive discussions with Wyndham Hotels and we feel very confident that they will soon be a signatory to the Code of Conduct. We thank them for their responsiveness and look forward to working together on the application process.”<\/p>\n

In other words, Wyndham has responded very positively, in part due to the social activism by you and many others to stand against trafficking.<\/p>\n

As a result, new policies will be put in place that will help some people avoid being forced into prostitution (also called sex trafficking).<\/p>\n

Your efforts are helping make this possible.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

All that to say, thank you. Keep it up!<\/p>\n

And if you haven’t joined yet, signed the petition here<\/a> online now.<\/p>\n
