She needs you to shelter her from traffickers.

Every $60 rescues a child from dangerous streets with a night of safe shelter and everything she needs to heal from trauma.

You Can Rescue a Girl from the Risk of Trafficking

Every year, 2,000 teenagers age out of Colombia’s child welfare system with NO FAMILY.

This means 18-year-olds are left to figure the world out horribly alone, without anyone to guide them toward a healthy life or hopeful future.

With no sense of belonging, identity, or self-worth, these children are at risk of a lifetime of health, relationship, and behavioral challenges. 

Over the days, weeks, months, and years living in an institution, these children become young adults who believe the lies that they have no voice, don’t matter, and are not worthy of love.

Children in the Colombian welfare system have experienced years of loss and trauma, including physical and sexual abuse, neglect, and institutionalization.

Once aging out of the system, many are exploited and trafficked, leading them to fall into poverty, gang violence, or drug use.

By providing a Night of Shelter, you open the doors for a young girl to have a new future away from exploitation.
