Hilborn is currently raising money to make a late spring return to Nepal, a country located in south Asia between India and China. Hilborn has been to Nepal several times, including a safe schools mission in 2014 and also to help provide earthquake relief in 2015.While she was in the country for earthquake relief, she found out that several police checkpoints had been compromised as a result of the natural disaster.
This led to more child trafficking agents luring girls from their village and escaping from authorities, Hilborn said.The trafficking agents target girls who don’t go to school, haven’t gone past fifth grade, or who create a conflict within their family. The agents promise them a job and better life in Katmandu, Nepal’s capital, Hilborn said.They take the girls to India and sell them to the brothels for prostitution. It’s really messed up; it’s heartbreaking,” Hilborn said.To fight child trafficking, Hilborn wants to help the small mountain villages generate their own income. This will provide the finances needed to send children to school, which can be costly in Nepal, Hilborn said.
Hilborn is currently back in the United States organizing fundraisers and seeking corporate sponsors to help her entrepreneurship program for Nepal residents.Although she knows her plan will be challenging, Hilborn said she has always followed through on her goals with determination.“I’m a keen advocate for social justice,” Hilborn said.Hilborn’s favorite teacher when she attended St. Charles East High School is current St. Charles Mayor Ray Rogina. As a student in one of Rogina’s classes, Hilborn said she learned how to conduct better research and fight for what she wants with tenacity.
