  • Sonia, this message is SO important!! Thank you for putting it out there on YouTube and doing your research. How can we form some sort of coalition of YouTubers for girls' education? @hellokatyxo, @alannakalixo are also friends of ours passionate about the cause.

  • Wow! After watching that video on Sevenly how couldn't you buy a shirt. I love all your beauty videos, but have so much more respect you now because of this video. I can't wait to get my SHIRT!!!

  • U look a lot like Alisa Milano)

  • the girls come as young as 3 years old as well infants to grow in to slavery. a good book to read is "half the sky" by nicholas d. kirstof and sheryl WuDunn...there are great resources in the book as well if people want to learn more or help out...

  • you're a stunner! :)

  • sonia is seriously the sweetest! Youre so down to earth and realistic! I enjoy you and your advice and beauty tips so much more than dulce candy. No offense. but its the truth. Go sonia! :)

  • sonia, you are the sweetest girl on youtube.

  • I think ppl are disliking this vid bc there are so many charities helping ppl in other countryside and you hardly hear ppl talking about or even hear of ppl helping ppl in the usa.

  • @harmony8me I think 50 cent said it best when he said people over here at least have a chance people over there do not

  • omg, i cried watching this and the sevenly video. :(

  • wow, what's up with the dislikes. We should all want want to do whatever we can to help anyone who is being abused. God Bless you for doing what you can do to help girl!!!!!

  • This video and the one from Sevenly made me tear up! I've decided to buy a shirt and send the video to my friends thanks to you. :3 This is truly inspirational! And it's really nice seeing a make-up guru speak up for such a great cause.

  • every guru has her haters but it is amazing that there are actually people hating on something that is so positive. i think it is wonderful what she is doing

  • I'm a fourteen year old girl in Connecticut. I came from a country in the middle east called Syria. We moved to the US because of these kind of things. I'm very fond of these things because I basically lived part of it. My parents moved me here to be safe from the people that may hurt me in so many wrong ways..of course I'm okay now :) but thnx so much for doing this it means alot

  • These will make great xmas gifts. Love what you're doing. It shows that you're beautiful inside and out.

  • I think this is scam ... these thisrt will go to scammers

  • sonia, i went to your meet and greet and it was totally amazing. your just as i expected you were,,,, i was the girl in the green shirt, and you were looking at me like damn, i have little veiwers too? your so down to earth and amazing.

  • if someone will buy these tshirts she got a % of revenue

  • This made me tear up. I take a Human Geography class at my high school. We learn and watch videos about these kinds of things around the world, specially in African and Asian countries. Many times I tear up in class and it amazes me how other people don't. Yeah the U.S. has it's problems but we have to be thankful that we live in such an amazing country. We are so sheltered and take many things for granted. We must open our eyes and realize what is happening in the world!

  • Is there a way where i can find the t shirts and organizations for future weeks?

  • I really wish I could buy a shirt, but I can't afford it right now. It makes me sad because I love causes like this. **sigh**

  • Sonia, I am so happy to know that you are such a kind and giving person and not just about beauty. I love the fact that you are using your position on you tube and twitter to spread this message . I plan on buying 2 tees one for me and my daughter.

  • you are so amazing for doin this video sonia!!!! i have so much respect for you!!!

  • Great and informative video! I have been writing and doing missions in India for years now and am so happy to see you bringing awareness to this HUGE problem. I don't think people realize just how bad it is until you have either been there and experienced it or have researched the subject. I just started my own channel here on YouTube and just might have to follow your lead and post what I know about this too! Thanks for sharing!

  • @24morningstar okay you need to relax.... you obviously have some unsolved frustration tension.. and why would it be sickening if she got paid to make this video and sell shirts? how is that sickening....it clearly states in the description that she used her OWN money to pay it. so before writing a stupid almost hater comment you should read as a critical reader should read. holllaaaaa

  • there is a program called Because I Am A Girl that is putting together a petition to make sep 22 International Day of the Girl! You can find it at planusa.org/girls/get-involved and clicking on "sign the petition"

  • We should help the people in our own country first. So many homeless people, kids starving.

  • @Beautifulelsie I can understand where you are coming from but in my Human Geography class we learned that even the poorest people in the U. S. have better living conditions than most of the people around the world. For example even homeless people can go get help from the government. But in these developing countries they dont have that. I suggest you do some research on it and see what is going on around the world. I think you will find that the U.S. isnt such a horrible place to live in.

  • I'm so glad you use your channel for things like this too ppl def need to know about these issues thanks for using your youtube influence for a good cause. I can tell you have a huge heart :)

  • I really wish I could buy a shirt :-( I don't have a credit card because I'm too young but I definitely would buy the shirt. I will like them on FB though! This video is so sentimental, reading the comments break my heart </3 Can't believe these kinda things happen in the world...

  • I just got this T shirt. I recently read books called "Half the sky: Turning Oppression into Opportunity for women worldwide" and "The Road of Lost Innocence: The true story of a Cambodian Heroine." After reading these books, I just couldn't help but to purchase the T shirt. Thank you for introducing this charity to us.

  • Sonia you are awesome for taking the time to post videos like this!... but at the same time we have to remember that evil happens EVERYWHERE that means even here in the US. stuff that you mentionedhas happenedto girls i grew up with. And nothing is done for them..just because we are the United states, people forget that We need to help our own. I just wish people would raise awareness for things that happen in the US instead of thinking the third world countries are the only ones suffering..

  • I think you are so WONDERFUL to bring awareness to such a great cause, esp. because it's something that isn't really heard of a lot and is important to spread the word on it and help these young girls

  • Great vid

  • This is such a touchy video. It makes me sick to my stomach just to hear about young girls in other parts of the world getting raped or getting sold. I'm glad to know your spreading Awareness. I will do the same :-)

  • OK so this is exactly why we LOVE you SONIA because your heart just comes out of the computer <3<3

  • I loove you Sonia! Thank you for raising awareness for injustice and being a role model for us girls! You are beautiful inside and out :) you make me proud to be a subscriber of yours!

  • This is so great. You seem like the nicest person ever.

  • sonia, you almost made me cry</3 omg, you have such a big heart & i really look up to you for that. thanks so much for being you and inspiring so many young girls.

  • This makes me want to cry also:(

  • Tienes un gran corazon chika!

  • It makes me feel so thankful that the young girls in the US don't have to go through this. I wish it could be the same for everyone around the world. You're an amazing person Sonia(:

  • Thank you for sharing this and i shared through facebook and twitter and i will even mention it in a video i wish money wasnt so tight at my house or i would buy a shirt

  • So Great! Sonia ...thanks for sharing !

    theres is also Plan international's Because I am A Girl ;) check it out.

  • Thank you for sharing!I will be purchasing a shirt!

  • ://

    ima buy that shirtt

    Godd Bless Themm ♥

  • I'm gonna buy a shirt, it'd hurt me so much to see somebody I loved going through this :(

  • you are such a good person. I'm so glad i'm subscribed to someone like you. <3

  • Cant add u on fb cause u have the max number of friends:'(

  • cant add you on faceb00k... :(

  • Thank you for letting me now about this <3 !

  • I went to Sonia's meet&greet yesterday, and let me honestly tell you that she actually cares about people and is incredibly kind and sweet. She's stepping outside of her "beauty box" and making a video in an effort to bring awareness to everyone. Not many gurus do that.

  • Que Dios te bendiga por usar tu canal para hablar de esto -3

  • 8 people are absolutely heartless.

  • wooohooo! 300+ people viewed this video on the 1st day! now no one has an excuse to not do anything about these issues!

  • For all the girls posting negative things

    Take a minute out of ur sorry ass time to think

    "what is it was me" exactly what If you were the one in their situation being forced into sex trades or forced to b married with old disgusting men? Wouldn't u want someone to help u? There's many woman and young girls being exposed to things like this

    Thank the Lord that u are not in their shoes and stop talking shit! And if any men are being negative do the same imagine it was your daughter, sister, c

  • Why not use that money, or support a similar cause in the US?

  • I was made to marry young.I have a family and a home at 16. I was kicked out my home at 14. i have been raped and beaten+more.by the grace of god the men they allowed me to married help me thru it all 12 almost 13 years now im so happy he is in my life. He is my rock and i could not have done anything with out his support .He is my best friend.his mother when thru the same and more. here in the usa. and we are ok. I'm in nursing i have a great hubby and 5 lovely kids.

  • I 100% understand the fact that making a t-shirt cost money labor, material etc but they only donate $7 out of the $22 thats not even half? I support you and this cause I just wish they donated more of the money

  • wow crazy video omg

  • I was married but 16 and i know alot of other like me and its was hear but Im ok. I understand where ur coming from but for me it normal life and some of us turn out ok. It was hard but I went to collage 5 kids and all. It took me forever but i did it and I know other females like me that are ok too.

  • I admire that cause and want to help too! However I hope you'll let me remind u every thing you've

    spoken of..... also happens here in the U.S.!!!!! Start at home!

  • I do support your opinion and like how good hearted you are, however why just girls? Boys suffer in developing countries aswell.

  • hi sonia i saw the video and got so emotional! =( i will def be purchasing a tee to help with the cause and i have four sisters so i will get them one as well! oh nd for my mom too!!! =)))

  • ill buy 1

  • I JUST turned 13, and thinking that a year ago I could have been forced into these disgusting things... it just makes me sick to my stomach to even think about what happens to those girls, what could have been me if I lived there.

  • Just purchased mine :) thank you for keeping us aware of such causes. Gurus like you should should share such causes with viewers, you have the power to influence many young girls in making the world a better place. If you have any other causes do let us all know..! I am sure we are all willing to help :)

  • Ppl don't get so caught up in being negative. Don't worry if she got paid or not the point is that she is bringing awareness to this horrible crisis.

  • Thx for the video! For those who can't buy a shirt, you can save and make a purchase when your ready to don't forget you can also bring awarness buy sharing facebook, twitter etc

  • Hi there... thanks for spreading the word. I've purchased from Sevenly before and I'm loving what they're doing. I purchased the shirt a few weeks back to support GEM, to fight against the unwanted sex trade here in the US. The shirt wears so well!

  • awww ur so cute sonia, u have a very big heart! will def buy a tshirt!

  • in latin america girls marry or just get together with an older man young to ran away from the poverty they live in, sadly their society convince them is the only way... I really hope this can star to make a difference.

  • def be purchasing a tee :) thanks sonia for putting this out here for us so we can help!!

  • OMG this video comes in time! i'm originally Saudi and live in Saudi Arabia

    and there is a news that comes today about a drunk husband "60" years old beating his wife "26 years old with a SCREW! and when he got tired of beating, he took there children and run away, until now the police didnt know where they r while his wife in the hospital!

    i saw the picture and it's so awful :(

    just thought i would tell the story cuz im so emotional too about it

    i will do my best to buy the tshirt, thanx!

  • really? 7 dislikes? you have a real big heart sonia <3

  • Im glad somebody actually cares about this stuff Sonia. I posted this on my fb and my twitter and my blog and i posted this video for people to watch as well so I can help you get the word out(:

  • There are 7 very ignorant people. Thanks for sharing!!!!

  • How can people deslike this those who deslike this are those girls who dont care because they have everything but not everything in life is forever right now they may have all what they want but sooner or later that can stop

  • if all these girls knew that you were here trying to help them i know they would smile and cry in happiness that someone is out there to help them<3

  • i wish i could do something about this problem but i cant help im really mad that i cant buy a shirt or do something to help

  • Awww this is sad =/.. .must do something to help.. .<333

  • Its really nice of you to share all this here :)

  • Wonderful video and wonderful info, we don't know how good we have it here. Always makes me sad and want to help others. That is what Christmas and this holiday season is about, helping others. :) You're a doll!!!

  • i really hope ur not makin money of making this video cause that would be sickening

  • @24morningstar the fact you think lowly of sonia is sickening!

  • @poseytoesy re read the comment sweetie. I said IF she got paid its sickening. and mind ur own business its youtube people are free to say whatever they want. you are not her if she had a problem with it she would comment herself. she prob never reads anyrhing people say.

  • @24morningstar I have written to her several times and never got any reply. still like her vids. though....

  • @222mdb oh yea she def wont but I dont care either way i watch videos that i want and interest me hers are really good though

  • @24morningstar

    From the info box: "FTC- I bought the shirt I am wearing and will be purchasing the shirt I mentioned with my own money. God Bless the girls who are in need of our help!"

    I hope this clarifies the horrible assumption you're making about Sonia.

  • @24morningstar I read what ppl say and block everyone who is rude, inconsiderate, hateful, and judges me...someone you have never met. Take the video for what it is. There are many bad things happening all over the world...HATE being the number one cause for evil. Have a blessed day.

  • @sccastaneda did u get paid to make the video? jus curious. have a blesssed day :)

  • @24morningstar yes she does go to the website and scroll to the bottom and click on Affiliate Program

  • Amazing cause :) I know its sad, but this is happening all over the world 24/7. Its not just girls, there are millions of millions of people living in poverty who need help. Arranged marriages sound awful to us in the West, but they are normal in the East. Arranged marriages are cultural in places like India and not all of them are bad. I know you hear bad stories, but you get those with marriages in the West! Sex trafficing is terrible, but the blame shouldnt go on the Eastern marital culture.

  • you are so positive n beautiful this whole video made me tear up... im going to buy a teeshirt i hope those girls will get the help they need <3

  • ur a very beautiful person frm inside an out xxxx

  • Great message! Thank you for sharing :) I will definately be purchasing this tee!

  • Great video! I like the voice overs too :)

  • thank you for bringing this ongoing issue to your channel. purchasing this shirt as a gift for my 14 yr old god daughter

  • *favorited* 

  • The more I watch you the more I admire you

    XOXO

  • This made my belly hurt, Im buying one for every one of my sisters.

  • Thank you for giving us facts and bringing awareness to this issue Sonia 

  • : ) great video

  • Thanks Sonia for making a video on this. I never knew there was an organization to help girls in this situation! Thank you.

  • Comment removed

  • i dont get how anyone can click dislike...wow

  • @MissTnJLov3 a bunch of idiots!

  • @MissTnJLov3 they don't like Sonia so they don't listen this important thing she has to say... SAD

  • @MissTnJLov3 I would theoretically press dislike simply because the message in the video is so sad, yet so true, that it can completely ruin your mood - i actually felt like crying...in other words - not everyone can handle the thruth, especially when it's so cruel...

    (just for the record, i am not among the people that pressed the dislike button...)

  • How awesome that you are bringing light to this!!! Getting my shirt!

  • Aw Sonia... I think it's so great that you are doing something so positive with your youtube success... I'm proud to say that I'm subscribed to you. I will most definitely buy a t-shirt.... :-)

  • Thank you for bringing awareness to this issue! :-)
