John,
Lara* just wanted to make a little money for her family by babysitting for her neighbor. When Lara’s father died, her mother took over his job as a cleaner at a government hospital and money was tight.
Where Lara saw an opportunity to help her family, her neighbor saw an opportunity to make a quick profit — by selling Lara for sex.
In an instant, Lara’s life was turned upside down.

Lara describes her childhood as “bindaas,” a Hindi word meaning “cool and carefree.” But now, on top of the abuse she faced each week, her neighbor threatened to blackmail her if she told anyone about what was happening.
Lara was alone and plagued by the fear that her mother and sister would find out what she was doing at her neighbor’s house. What would they think of her when they learned the truth?
John, supporters just like you made sure that Lara was found and brought to a shelter that could care for her needs. On top of that, the woman who was exploiting Lara was arrested and put on trial.
That’s the power of Freedom Partners. With their commitment to giving monthly, they help bring lasting rescue, healing and justice to children around the world who are being trafficked and abused.

On the day of the rescue, the team could not believe how young Lara looked. One police officer said, “Her frail and tiny structure resembled nothing of a 15-year-old.”
But today, she has been restored back to health and has graduated from the aftercare process. She even bravely testified in court against her trafficker.
There are more girls just like Lara who are waiting for their day of freedom. With your help, they can be found.
