HUMAN TRAFFICKING is one of the greatest social injustices of our time and the fastest growing illegal enterprise in our world today. Sadly, 1.2 million children are trafficked each year – the majority of them ending up in the sex trade.

Destiny Rescue is an international, faith-based non-profit dedicated to rescuing children from sexual slavery and exploitation. We help rescue and restore those being exploited, protecting and empowering them, while being their voice to the world.  We currently operate our programs in seven nations: Thailand, Cambodia, Philippines, Dominican Republic, and three undisclosed countries.

We RESCUE
Mostly teen girls from brothels & bars—over 5,000 to date. 1,400 rescues in 2019!

We RESTORE
Approximately 300 girls currently in our care.  Case-workers and counselors help the girls work through the trauma, enabling them to heal and experience growth.

We REINTEGRATE
Teachers and vocational trainers help the girls learn life skills to re-enter society and thrive. Last year we saw an 80% success rate, which is exceptional for this kind of work.
