The Child ID is a part of the Safe Surfin Foundation’s fight to save children from child trafficking, predators and the horrible crimes against our children in our area and in the world. Safe Surfin is worldwide with its beginning in Bedford, Virginia in 1998. The Moose organization was one of the first organizations to fund and support the foundation. We can make a difference in our area and for our children.
