Empower a girl living in poverty

 

 

 

 

 

Daniella was kidnapped and forced to work in a brothel until she was rescued by the local Compassion partner church!

The Problem

  • Women represent fewer than 5% of all agricultural landholders in North Africa and West Asia.1

  • In sub-Saharan Africa, nearly 40% of girls are married before age 18.2

  • 71% percent of all human trafficking victims are women and girls.3

The Solution

  • Each registered girl has the opportunity to receive an education and develop a career.

  • Each girl in the program benefits by hearing the gospel and being paired with a mentor to help guide her through life.

  • The centers are healthy and safe spaces for girls to learn skills and hobbies that reduce their vulnerability to exploitation and traffickers.
