When Esdenka* arrived, she was quiet and withdrawn. Now? She's full of life—dreaming of owning a stationery shop to help her mom. She found healing, belonging. $75/month helps girls like her receive therapy and stability.
Let’s nurture mighty dreams:

Yesterday, we celebrated Bolivia’s Children’s Day with our kids — each with their own dreams and aspirations. But all face the same risk: exploitation. Their future shouldn’t be shaped by their mother’s past. That’s why we show up — with love, safety and opportunities to dream.

Every day, 3 reports of trafficking are registered in Bolivia. As of July 2024, there have been 699 cases, with La Paz, Cochabamba, and Santa Cruz at the forefront. Trafficking of minors continues to rise. It's urgent to raise awareness and take action! la-razon.com/nacional/2024/0…

“If we remain silent, they will remain silent too.” This was shared by an instructor from the Kamani Association during one of our workshops on detecting and preventing child sexual abuse. The workshops equipped moms and kids to recognize and prevent abuse. #womenandchildren

Today, let’s challenge the structures that foster marginalization and vulnerability, as well as the dynamics of human exploitation, which are factors that fuel human trafficking. #traffickingprevention #vidaabundante #digitalsecurity

Recently, the Kids’ Program backpacked the Caminata de Takesi, a 35-kilometer trail stretching from the Andes into the Yungas jungle. The kids learned basic survival skills and discussed the importance of life experiences and God’s work in their lives. #takesi #vidaabundante

Last week the Kids Program held an art workshop for teens, Because many have experienced trauma in their past, we hope to help them process their emotions through art and recognize their potential, thereby breaking generational cycles of violence in their own lives. #art #teens

There are many misconceptions surrounding human trafficking and it’s important to recognize the signs in our own communities. Join in the fight by learning more about the realities of human trafficking and sexual exploitation. #traffickingawareness #exploitationawareness
