your donation will help prevent sex trafficking

Invest in strengthening families and communities, helping them prioritise the safety and education of their children. Dedicate your donation to one of our three strategic goals.

Goal

Safe communities for children

We teach families how to protect themselves from exploitation and abuse. We address complex factors such as poverty, hunger, illness, unemployment, migration, addiction, violence, family breakdown and debt.

Goal

Educated
girls

While physically in the classroom girls are safe. We provide the materials and funds they need to access their local state school, and keep girls in school by providing access to water, food and shelter.

Goal

Women in
leadership

We model gender equity and invest in the next generation of Cambodian women leaders by providing leadership training to emerging leaders, and funding university places.

Follow your impact

Each quarter we publish an Impact Report, which highlights the impact of our program on a particular girl or family, told through the lens of one of our five values.
