| To raise awareness and financial aid for safe houses around the world that are working tirelessly in the rescue and restoration of children from labor and sex slavery. |
| Free For Life Ministries is currently committed to providing support for Reaching Out, a safe house in Romania for victims rescued from human trafficking. Reaching Out has been operating since 1998. This house has provided safety and help for over 170 victims who have found their way there. Once there, the girls are provided (free of charge) residence at the safe house, job training, schooling, and counseling. The girls attend church services, and are integrated back into society by partnering with individuals who provide a place to live after they leave the safe house. Iana Matei, the founder of Reaching Out has been recognized by the U.S. State Department as one of the heroes on the front lines in the war against human trafficking. She has also has made presentations to the United Nations on this important issue. Reaching Out is solely supported through contributions. Right now the house is in desperate need of funds to meet their daily needs. We are committed to help in their support, and have set an initial goal of 1,000 individuals committing to a pledge of just $10.00 monthly. In doing so we can help Reaching Out continue to operate effectively, and sow into the future of these amazing girls. |

| Founded in 1988 by Shanta Sapkota, Peace Rehabilitation Center has been rescuing victims of human trafficking for almost 20 years. They also have a plan to open an AIDS hospital due to the large number of cases they see. They have great vision as they realize that this fight can only be won by combating trafficking on the front end. For this reason they are on a mission to prevent trafficking at it's root sources - primarily poverty and illiteracy. Their programs include border monitoring to prevent girls from being taken out of the country, education of girls at risk through community training, vocational training, economic assistance through donations of goats and cows to economically empower the girls, educational skits, etc. They have been extremely successful in these programs and have been responsible for capture of over 25 traffickers at the border crossings alone. Free For Life Ministries is committed to supporting these amazing individuals to continue to do what they are doing so well. |
