HOW MANY PEOPLE DOES IT TAKE TO OVERCOME HUMAN TRAFFICKING?
We have the privilege of being one puzzle piece in the wide scope of the fight against global human trafficking. We fight alongside many organisations that each take on a different facet of the problem and we are so grateful for our many partnerships and the united effort towards a better future.

From day one, our work has proven not easy. We face challenges of a deep-rooted culture of shame that a young girl carries after sexual exploitation and the challenges of working with a developing legal system.
This season has taught us that there will always be a new challenge. No one saw the COVID-19 pandemic coming and if we’re honest, it’s another ‘enormity of the problem’.

And it’s our job to share this with you, so that victims of exploitation and trafficking are not forgotten and abandoned. Ignorance is only bliss for those who are thousands of miles from the pain but knowledge can mobilize us to be someone's answer.

This weekend is International Women’s Day: a significant date in our calendar where we celebrate women across the globe and the fight for equal rights. We look back on how far we have come, honouring the women in history who boldly advocated for their sisters and saw change take place in our world. And we look to the future: what still needs to be done for equality and how we can be a part of a movement of empowerment.

“Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.”
While very cliche, this thought quintessentially captures our mission. We can give money to those who need it. We can fundraise money, ask for cash donations; we can gather enough to provide for the vulnerable. But we don’t have a stash of purpose, of passion, of motivation and identity. That must be cultivated by the user.

This March is our 12th anniversary of rescuing girls from sexual exploitation and rehabilitating them in our SHE Rescue Home.
We have seen the immediate effects in so many lives as we bring girls out of very dark places into new light where they can be educated, loved upon and healed. But for the first time, we are starting to see the long-term effects of our work, now that the young girls who we rescued 12 years ago are living the futures they once hoped for.
Our HER Initiative employs families and allows them to work from home to ensure their children are looked after and safe. The work is stable and fair and provides for the needs of the family and it proactively fights poverty and exploitation. In many cases, our HER Initiative is the reason that children can receive an education.
