Our Mission
Together we transform the lives of women and children at risk - orphans, widows, and the victims of human trafficking.
Transforming Lives
- Together we can transform the lives of women and children at risk so they escape the systemic cycle of poverty.
- Together we can expand the capacity of impoverished women to earn a living and become independent through vocational and other training.
-
Together we can help impoverished children who are without hope, by providing a range of developmental programs:
- vocational training for older children
- comprehensive education
- transitional care for genuine orphans
- transitional care for children at high risk
- employment
- counselling
- medical care
- Together we can assist the victims of human trafficking in their recovery, education and integration back into mainstream society.
When faced with overwhelming needs, rather than despair, we roll up our sleeves and say "we will help one child at a time". For that child, it means everything.

A Safe Home
Women and children who have been abandoned, orphaned, or trafficked, need a safe place to live. Our trained staff provide loving homes that are professionally managed. In this environment women and children have a wonderful opportunity to grow, heal, and prepare for an independent and productive future.
Vocational Training
We provide women and children with various training courses, as we prepare them to become self-supporting and independent.
Education
To break the cycle of poverty, we work with our partners to ensure every child receives the best education possible. We support children to finish high school, and then undertake tertiary study or vocational training. We have a number of children who are currently studying in university or college.
Medical & Therapeutical Care
Many of the women and children we care for have been traumatized and require counseling and therapeutic care. We also provide medical care for all women and children in residence.
