A little girl's stepfather trafficked her for 5 years. Then she found
a way to ask for help.

GOD'S CHILDREN ARE NOT FOR SALE
Friend,
Imagine you're eight years old, and you just lost your mom.
You were taken across the border by the very man who was supposed to
keep you safe.
You're taken away from everyone who loves you.

That was Jeanie.
FOR FIVE YEARS, HER OWN STEPFATHER TRAFFICKED HER.
This makes me sick, and I imagine it does the same for you.
Her sister never stopped searching. The FBI had a case open. But once
Jeanie was taken to Mexico, she seemed impossible to find.
THEN ONE NIGHT, JEANIE FOUND HER MOMENT.
She quietly used her stepfather's phone and typed the words: "HELP
ME," her location, and a warning to her sister not to respond so her
stepfather wouldn't see the message.
FRIEND, CAN YOU IMAGINE THE COURAGE THAT TOOK?
When a SOUND OF FREEDOM FOUNDATION partner was notified about the
message, they had one small window before she'd be gone again.
The team drove through the night, thirteen hours into
cartel-controlled territory. At daybreak, they found her and got her
out safely.
Her first request once she was safe?
PIZZA.
She hadn't had it in years.
TODAY, JEANIE IS SAFE, HEALING, AND THRIVING IN A LOVING ADOPTIVE
FAMILY.

My name is Eduardo Verástegui. I produced the film SOUND OF FREEDOM,
and for me, I thought it would be the finish line.
It wasn't.
The film was only the beginning.
I heard stories like Jeanie's, and I could not walk away. This is why
the SOUND OF FREEDOM FOUNDATION exists.
BECAUSE THE STORIES DIDN'T STOP WHEN THE CREDITS ROLLED.
The SOUND OF FREEDOM FOUNDATION has one mission:
TO STOP THE SALE OF GOD'S CHILDREN.
We carry out that mission through five pillars:
* Prevention
* Intervention
* Education
* Information
* Influence
We fund the investigators who find trafficked children, the hotlines
that answer the call, and the safe homes waiting when a child is
finally rescued.
ALL OF IT HAPPENS BECAUSE PEOPLE LIKE YOU REFUSE TO LOOK AWAY.
Help Us Reach the Next Child

Freedom is the first step.
But after a survivor escapes trafficking, they may need almost
everything to begin again. Your gift can help provide the basic care,
safety, and dignity they need in those critical first days of
freedom.
✅ A $25 GIFT CAN GO TOWARD CLEAN CLOTHES AND BASIC
NECESSITIES after a survivor leaves exploitation behind.
✅ YOUR $50 CAN SUPPORT SAFE TRANSPORTATION to medical care, a safe
home, or another place of protection.
✅ $100 CAN GO TOWARD MEDICAL CARE AND OTHER URGENT SUPPORT as a
survivor begins the long journey of healing.
WILL YOU GIVE $25, $50, $100, OR WHATEVER YOU CAN TODAY TO HELP
RESTORE TO A SURVIVOR WHAT TRAFFICKING TRIED TO STEAL FROM THEM?
