2023 impact report
Around the world, more than 50 million people are in slavery.
This figure is difficult to even comprehend in its scope, but behind each of those 50 million cases lies a different and unique account. Our projects have the potential to transform these heartbreaking statistics into stories of transformation and purpose in three areas: prevention, intervention and restoration.

How we strategically fight for freedom
Prevention
By addressing the core issue now, we aim to avert its escalation in the future. Our focus is on educating today’s youth to prevent them from falling into or perpetuating the cycle of prostitution.
Intervention
To free victims, we must reach them in their environment. We venture to streets, plazas, migration centers, and hidden places, offering those bound by these chains a new life path.
Restoration
Freedom is the first step; the longer journey is in healing and restoring hope and spirit, requiring compassionate support, guidance, and love for the survivors.
