3 Small Children Set Free | Child Slavery Still Exists

The Saqib family of 5 is being set free with 3 small children. Child slavery still exists today, but we can end it with your help. We do child slavery rescues, fight human trafficking, and help persecuted refugees in different parts of the world. We find opportunities to rescue the most vulnerable individuals around the world, and once we find them, we fund the rescue to help them rebuild their life. We provide those rescued with food, clothing, housing, transportation, legal services, and emotional support. We can’t do this alone, so we partner with NGO’s and organizations in various locations around the world. These partners provide the local support to each individual. PAKISTAN: Across Pakistan’s brick kilns, entire families work under inherited debts they can never repay, with children born into the same bondage as their parents. We identify these families, negotiate and settle the debt that binds them to the kiln owner, and provide a small business grant so the family has income from day one of freedom. We then stay engaged through ongoing monthly visits, tracking safety, income, schooling, and health long after the rescue day. ESWATINI: In Eswatini, we operate two recovery homes for survivors of sex trafficking. Each home provides safe shelter, food, clothing, and daily care alongside trauma-informed counseling. We focus on the patient work of helping a survivor rebuild after exploitation. Where it is safe and desired, we pursue family reunification, and we walk with each survivor through the long arc of recovery rather than only the moment of rescue. AFGHANISTAN: Afghan women and families facing direct threat under the current regime have almost no legal pathway to safety. We come alongside these families with case advocacy, documentation support, and coordination with international resettlement channels, walking with them through the long wait between danger and refuge. Our work takes us into the darkest places on the planet to help fight child slavery, human trafficking, and persecuted refugees. You can learn more at https://theonerescues.org
