Cellist Joann Whang will give the US debut of Confined in Everyday Scenes at the Sun Gate Foundation’s Keys to Freedom Fundraiser. Their organization supports educational assistance to survivors of human trafficking.
We thank Sun Gate’s CEO, Shamere McKenzie, for the invite to participate in this important fundraiser and for being part of the inspiration behind the Confined in Everyday Scenes project.
About The Fundraiser:
Every survivor of human trafficking carries within them a story, not just of pain and loss, but of unimaginable courage. Behind every scar is strength. Behind every broken dream is the quiet determination to rise again. At Sun Gate Foundation, we believe that true freedom is not just the absence of abuse; it is the presence of opportunity. It’s the power to dream again, to learn again, and to build a life rooted in dignity, confidence, and purpose. That’s why our 2026 campaign, “Keys to Freedom: A Journey to Liberation Through Education,” is not simply a fundraiser; it’s a call to action. It’s a movement of hope. It’s a declaration that survivors are not defined by what was done to them, but by what they choose to become next. When you invest in a survivor’s education, you’re not just opening a door, you’re building a bridge to freedom.
