Charlie's sporting a good cause!

Charlie loves hockey, spend about two seconds talking to him and you'll figure that out.

He also loves people. So, when he heard about JESUSpolitik's ongoing project in Maputo, Mozambique helping kids get off the streets, off drugs, out of prostitution and on to Jesus and a better life... he knew this was something he wanted to be a part of anyway he could.

Charlie knew he had to do something to help - but his talent was in sports, not in politics, or international justice. What could he do to use what skills he has to help Mozambique in a big way?

Then it came to him.

The night of their next big game, they bombarded the audience with pamphlets telling all about the Maputo Project and what they can do to get involved. Then they took up a collection during break.

The money raised went to help girls coming out of prostitution. Specifically, to buy sewing machines for the center where they go to learn a new trade and a new life. So, instead of selling their bodies, girls can sell clothing and toys they've made.

It's about not only telling the girls about Jesus Christ who loves them. But, acting on that love to give them means to get out of their situation forever.

"It's not just about raising awareness. I think we're all sick of that. It's about inspiring action and thinking of things that you personally can do to make a difference using what God has given you."

So, that's his story.

What's something that you could do right now where you are?
