Special comedy night on Aug. 26 will benefit Atlanta Redemption Ink

COVINGTON — A special comedy night on Aug. 26 featuring award-winning comedian and actor Bone Hampton and award-winning comedian Lisa Mills will benefit Atlanta Redemption Ink (ARI), a non-profit organization in Conyers that supports anti-trafficking efforts and recovery.

ARI focuses on restoring dignity to survivors of exploitation, trauma and abuse by turning marks of hurt into depictions of hope, recovery and freedom. They assist recovered self-harmers, women/minors with sex trafficking brandings (forced tattoos by traffickers marking them as property), gang/hate tattoos, and domestic violence scars/burns. ARI connects survivors with partnered and trusted artists to assist in the tattoo removals and covers.
