A mother’s heartbreaking story about her daughter, who was trafficked, is being used to save other families and stop the cycle of trafficking and addiction.
“We lost our daughter seven years ago to addiction and human trafficking, and that is what has propelled us to start the foundation Meant to Soar, healing the next generation,” said Elsa Ezell.“She was raped, and she really struggled with that. And that led to drinking, and drinking led to drugs,” Ezell said.“She was being sold on Craigslist. There’s such a commodity for selling people that if they can get somebody hooked on drugs, you know, they’ve got you,” Ezell said.
“She would call them her friends and her family, and we were not her family anymore. When you need the drugs, all of a sudden, she would do anything for them,” Ezell said.Once clean, Britta had two beautiful babies, but soon after, addiction pulled her back in and took her life at 24 years old.Ezell and her husband are raising Britta’s two children.
Ezell’s nonprofit, which is launching this week, will fund therapy for these families and other needs they may have. It’s all an attempt to save children from the cycle of abuse, trafficking, and addiction.
