FRESNO, Calif. (KMJ/KFSN) — Family and friends continue to support a Fresno non-profit CEO and mother after her daughter was murdered last week in Los Angeles.
20-year-old Kendra is the daughter of Debra Rush, the founder of Breaking the Chains.
The local group works to help free people from human trafficking.
A GoFundMe page has raised more than $15,000 so far to help with funeral expenses.
Los Angeles police found Kendra’s body last Thursday.
A close family friend said she was shot and killed on a street popular for human trafficking.
Her mother, Debra, has spoken to Action News many times, helping to raise awareness about the dangers of human slavery.
She’s also been a part of several fundraisers to help survivors break the cycle and get back on their feet.
