PSA – Saving Innocence

Did you know…

At least 100,000 to 300,000 youth are at risk for commercial sexual exploitation annually in the U.S.

The average age of entry into the commercial sex industry in the U.S. is 12 years old.

Enjoy a beautiful summer night at the Ford Amphitheatre for a night of empowerment and music, featuring five of the best indie artists and bands in Southern California. As always, you are welcome to bring your picnic baskets of food & wine.

Kollab Live Kicks Off Inaugural Event with Priska and Gentleman’s Vibe

Kollab Live’s inaugural show recently debuted at the Bardot Hollywood with Priska and Gentleman’s Vibe headlining the event.
