Education for women & girls
Educating survivors of trafficking and gender-based violence – and girls at highest risk – so they can become and remain free.
Every 6 seconds, a girl's future is stolen by poverty or exploitation
Education is one of the most protective forces in a girl’s life. It dramatically cuts child marriage, reduces vulnerability to trafficking and violence, and nearly doubles a woman’s earnings – the independence that keeps her, and her daughters, safe.
WHERE WE WORK
Global Hotspots
We work where gender-based violence is most severe and support is most scarce – red light areas, slum communities, and remote villages with high rates of trafficking and child marriage – always alongside local partners.
11 million people in modern slavery.
India is one of the world’s largest hubs for modern slavery. We serve survivors and girls growing up in red light areas and communities with pervasive trafficking and child exploitation.
3.9 million child brides
Kenya is a hotspot for child marriage, FGM, and trafficking. With our partners, we shelter girls who flee and keep them in school through graduation..
770,000 children aged 5-12 out of school
In Nepal trafficking is concentrated in rural and indigenous communities facing extreme gaps in education and deep gender inequality. We reach girls before traffickers do.
WHAT WE DO
A girl's path to independence
Shelter & Wellbeing
A girl’s mind can’t focus if she is hungry, cold, or unsafe. Food, a bed, medical care, and counseling come first – the foundation everything else stands on.
Education
School gives her knowledge, confidence, and choices -and challenges the systems that made her vulnerable in the first place.
Job Training
Vocational training, English, and financial literacy lead to real employment – income she controls, in a life she chose.
Independence
She supports herself, protects her own children, and often returns to lift up the next girl. The cycle doesn’t just pause – it breaks.
