23 Kids Rescued in Kenya

12 Girls Rescued from Sexual Exploitation

Twelve girls are free from exploitation in South Asia.

Life has changed in a big way for these children. Seven of the girls, who were aged between 13 and 17 years old, had been forced to sell their bodies just to survive. The other five were at dire risk of being sexually trafficked because a parent or guardian was involved in sex work.

Since being rescued, all the children have enrolled in our residential care home. Safe from desperation and dangerous environments, they are recovering from all the trauma they suffered as our loving staff equips them with the vital life and career skills they’ll need to live free.

Border traffickers’ efforts thwarted: 50 victims rescued before lured out of Nepal

50 people are now home safe after our border agents rescued them from traffickers.

Our brave border agents prevented human traffickers from luring 50 victims, including 12 children, across the border with false promises. After speaking with the agents about the dangers of trafficking, all the survivors returned home.

69 Rescued from Human Traffickers

69 people, including 31 children, were rescued before they were trafficked across the Nepal border.

Traffickers use a variety of tactics, from romantic grooming to fake job postings, to lure their targets out of Nepal. Once out, the victims are sold into brothels or labor trafficking, cut off from help in a foreign land.

But these 69 survivors are safe! After being counseled on how criminals trick their targets, they all returned home to their families. One even pressed charges against her trafficker, despite the risk of incurring social stigma. That trafficker was arrested.

48 rescued from traffickers at the Nepal border

Eighteen kids and 30 adults were stopped before human traffickers could get them out of the country.

Among the survivors were two girls, aged 13 and 17, traveling with a woman who’d instructed them to lie when they reached a checkpoint. When our agents interviewed the girls, they noticed that their stories didn’t match. The traffickers had promised the girls good jobs on the other side but likely planned something much worse.

23 kids, along with four young adults, have been rescued from sexual exploitation by our teams in Kenya.

The incredible team of caseworkers and rescue agents rescued kids from a variety of exploitative exploitations, including trafficker-controlled exploitation, sex crimes and survival exploitation. All the survivors are now recovering in our Community Care Program.
