John,
It started with a promise – one that Angela* in Romania desperately needed to believe.
Angela had already endured years of abuse in her own home. So when she met Robert* online, his kind words felt like a lifeline. He promised her love, marriage and a new start in the UK.
For a brief moment, Angela dared to hope.
But instead of a new beginning, Angela found herself trapped in a house – forced into sexual exploitation with no way out. Robert had never intended to build a life with her. He was a trafficker, preying on her vulnerability.
Stories like Angela’s are heartbreaking – and all too common. But thanks to friends like you, her story didn’t end there. |

Angela was able to escape and return home to Romania. Your generous support helped provide aftercare services where she found the counseling, warmth and support she needed to begin to heal.
Today, Angela is finding her strength again. And her story is a powerful reminder of why the fight for justice can never take a break.
With your help, young women like Angela are experiencing healing through… |
|
|
|
• |
Training and supporting local partners like police and social workers who identify and respond to trafficking cases. | |
|
• |
Strengthening the justice system so traffickers can be held accountable. | |
|
• |
Providing aftercare services to support survivors like Angela with essentials like food, shelter, counseling and economic support. | | | |
|
|
And right now, your gift will help bring rescue and restoration to victims like Angela.
This summer, the need is urgent – because every day, more young women like Angela are being deceived and exploited. And every day, friends like you are helping bring them to safety.
So thank you for your very best gift, knowing your support will help rescue and protect even more lives.
Because the work of justice can never take a break.
Until all are free,
