10 People Rescued from Human Trafficking Across Asia
Eight children and two men are now free from exploitation.
The eight children suffered sexual exploitation before our team gave them a way out. All the kids have been reunited with their families.
Two men were rescued from international labour trafficking. They’re now free from their traffickers and have returned to their home countries. While we don’t normally target the rescue of adults in our work, we do help when law enforcement agencies or families ask.

Border agents intercepted 21 women and 19 children as traffickers attempted to lure them across the border and into a life of exploitation. The children were as young as 12 years old and included two boys.
Thankfully, these survivors will never know what the traffickers had in store for them. Once victims disappear across the border, it becomes extremely difficult to find them again. The few that do return tell harrowing stories of abuse and exploitation.
