3 boys rescued through newest pilot project

Three boys, ages 8, 9 and 11, have been rescued from sexual abuse and are receiving care.

The boys were all being abused by a local business owner. The grandmother of one of the children bravely sought out our team to get help for her grandson after she discovered what he had endured.

Our teams will provide counseling to the boys and will work to empower all three families economically so the young boys can attend school.

The man was arrested but later released. Our team continues to gather evidence in hopes the police can take further action against the alleged perpetrator.

18 Children Rescued in South Asia

The kids are now all recovering together in our Residential Home.

All of the girls faced desperate circumstances, from neglect at home to family illness, that made it difficult to even afford food. With nowhere else to turn, the girls were forced to sell their own bodies just so they could buy food. Three of the children lived in homes where a family member engaged in sex work, putting them at dire risk of abuse.

Our agents gave the children another option. In the Residential Home, the children will not only work through the trauma they endured, but also be equipped with vital vocational skills that will help them achieve financial independence, ensuring they never have to resort to exploitation again.

Trigger Warning: Suicidal thoughts and sexual abuse

10-year-old Olivia had been acting strangely for months. She seemed angry and withdrawn, and her teacher grew concerned. One day, the fire department had to rescue the young child after she climbed a nearby electrical tower, showing a disturbing lack of concern for her own well-being. Her teacher patiently earned Olivia’s trust until one day, when Olivia revealed that her father had been sexually abusing her. Confused and in pain, Olivia had begun acting out in a silent cry for help. When her mother was told, she dismissed Oliva, telling the teacher that the child liked to make things up. But Olivia’s teacher took the case to the authorities anyway. The ensuing investigation, supported by Destiny Rescue, revealed tragic evidence of little Olivia’s sexual abuse and neglect. Olivia’s father was arrested, and she was taken to a shelter. She has a long road ahead of her, but loving caseworkers and mental health professionals are on her side, helping her overcome.
