Linda Smith & Khyla (Small)

Despite the sagging economy and an unfinished multi-million dollar building project of their own, members of Cedarhome Baptist Church in Stanwood were able to raise over $10,000 for rescuing teenage moms and their babies caught in a web of human trafficking.  Former congresswoman for Washington State, Linda Smith heads an organization called Shared Hope International took part of her vacation to come out and receive the symbolic $10,000 check that represented the giving of Cedarhome’s members over the last 6 months through everything from sales of prayer bracelets to the bake sale of 2nd grader Khyla Boyer (seen above) which brought in over $600.

Cedarhome’s next project – sending ‘high-risk’ kids from the Hilltop & Eastside areas of Tacoma to summer camp at Warm Beach. The goal is to help 50 kids attend camp this summer.
