(COLORADO SPRINGS) — FOX21 News and Venu (formerly Notes Live) are teaming up once again to present the Second Annual Fashion with a Purpose, a fashion show on Saturday, Oct. 4, 2025, at Phil Long Music Hall at Bourbon Brothers in Colorado Springs.

The event will highlight how your fashion choices can impact the underground world of labor and human trafficking. Many people want to believe that human trafficking isn’t happening in their neighborhood, but experts say it’s more common than people realize.

Jennisue Jessen is a human trafficking survivor, who was trafficked as a child by one of her own family members. She joined FOX21 Morning News on Wednesday, Sept. 17, and shared her story.
