One Day's Wages is Looking to Grant $30,000 for Human Trafficking Projects

We're excited to share with our movement that because of your generosity, we hope to award up to 3 grants totalling $30,000 in the upcoming months and many more in the future through the ODW Human Trafficking Fund - an issue specific fund meant to address the prevalence and severity of human trafficking.

The Human Trafficking Fund targets projects addressing the many facets surrounding human trafficking. 

Educate Yourself - What is Human Trafficking?

The United Nations defines Human trafficking as “the acquisition of people by improper means such as force, fraud or deception, with the aim of exploiting them". Human Trafficking is a very local issue, and looks differently from place to place; it can include sex slavery, forced labour, debt-bondage and even forced fighting in wars. It often takes advantage of women and children, as these groups are typically the most vulnerable in societies.

Many advocates for those subjected to trafficking have rightly called human trafficking “modern slavery”. Instead of being a intuitional form of slavery based solely on race, like most of us think of when they hear of slavery, the modern slave trade looks for those that are politically marginalized, stigmatized and in situations of desperation, and then exploits them for their own gain.     

  • There are an estimated 600,000 to 800,000 children, women and men trafficked across international borders annually. (U.S. Department of State)
  • Worldwide, there are nearly two million children in the commercial sex trade. (UNICEF)
  • The total market value of illicit human trafficking is estimated to be in excess of $32 billion. (UN
  • There are an estimated 27 million slaves in the world today – More than the total amount of people seized from Africa during the four centuries of the trans-Atlantic slave trade. (National Geographic)

$30,000 for Grants

Because of some individual donations and birthday causes for this project, an amazing and inspiring idea campaign via Justin's 2000 miles bike ride, and $25,000 raised last year for this issue, we have decided to award up to 3 grants totaling $30,000 to organizations that are working in the area of Human Trafficking and we hope to announce our recipients at or near this year's Annual Gala.

But we need your help.

Share your suggestions for Grants

At ODW, our ethos and values are not to award grants by hosting popularity contests, voting, or social media contests. Thousands of people have trusted us with their funds and we take that trust and stewardship seriously. 

Rather, we want to find and vet organizations - particularly smaller ones that are often overlooked - that are doing significant, transparent, and measurable work.

There are many organizations that are doing inspiring work but we don't know all of them - or even many of them.

This is where you come in

In the comment section below:

1) Share an NGO or CBO (community based organization) that is working around the issue of Human Trafficking and in countries classified as "low or medium development" nations by the United Nation’s Human Development Index.

2) Explain why you believe in their work. 

While not exclusive, our goals are to partner and collaborate with NGOs and CBOs whose operating budget is under $100,000/year USD.

* For organizations, you can read more about our criteria for grants and submit an initial letter of inquiry (LOI) here.

** For larger NGOs, we may direct them towards a "matching grant."

Your voice matter to us. We look forward to reading and researching your suggestions.

I stronlgy recommend RESTORE NYC to be a recipient of this generous grant- They recently opened their first safe house for victims primarily of foreign decent who have been forced into sex slavery in the greater NYC area. Trafficking of persons is UNJUST and Restore NYC provides holistic services to these girls and offers them hope. Please consider this Organization, they are currently trying to raise $50,000 to hire their first spanish speaking case worker!

catesongbird's picture

I was also going to recommend RESTORE NYC! They are doing amazing work in the local NYC area. I'm constantly blown away by how dedicated they are and how grassroots the org is. Here's their website: http://restorenyc.org/

I spent the past 15 months in Mexico City with El Pozo de Vida (The Well). We are currently housing 5 young girls who are victims of abuse and trafficking and we are one of the few that is offering live-in care for girls of this demographic. The youngest is 11 and the oldest is 17. The funds are always tight! We are employing 3 full-time staff and 2 part-time along with a team of volunteers to serve these girls 24/7.

I know that a grant in any amount would be of incredible assistance to this small grassroots home.

DG's picture

Totally agree with DK. El Pozo de Vida (The Well) is a great group! What i love is how they are collaboratively working with different grassroots, indigenous organizations in mexico city. They aren't talking about it. They are doing it from the grassroots!

Benny Yu's picture

Thanks so much for the love guys!

Also wanted to add on that we also have an outreach center in the largest prostitution district in Latin America. We also have been working closely with the Attorney General's office here in Mexico City, receiving girls about every 6 weeks. We just received a victim last week from a very high profile case. We are witnessing justice and advocacy in the midst of a corrupt system!

Additionally, our staff is now growing and the grant would go towards our operational costs to rescuing and holistically rehabilitating young women who have gone through so much...

Bless you guys for this!

Esther Park 's picture

The team at the Well are a dedicated and compassionate group of people who work sacrificially for the betterment of the girls that are housed there. I was able to witness their work this past summer and I was blown away at firstly, the incredible pain that the young girls had come from and secondly, at the genuine eagerness to engage with these girls and help them towards healing - helping them to know their worth and God-given beauty. The staff go through a lot with these girls; walking alongside them and sharing with them in their hurt and pain.
This grant would help to offset operational costs - please if you would be so kind, give the grant to The Well! Bless you ODW!

Loc Ta 's picture

Their are two things I want to look at when I look to give to an NGO: Integrity and Effectiveness. The Well fits both criteria and the 3rd criteria that is harder to measure is passion. They do not lack in the last area. In fact they have it in spades. They are doing this work regardless because they feel called to do it. It's a project that was born out of an organic response to a very serious problem. I hope ODW's will find them worthy of this generous opportunity as it will propel the work they are doing in one of the most violent, corrupt cities in the world.

Please consider Cherish Our Children. This effort is based in the Evangelical Lutheran Church of America, and given the wide network that exists with Lutheran World Relief could reach both internationally and nationally to end this abomination.

I highly, highly encourage you to become aware of Exodus Cry.
"Exodus Cry is an international anti-trafficking organization committed to abolishing modern day slavery through prayer and awareness, and assisting the victims of human trafficking and slavery through rescue, rehabilitation, and reintegration into society."
www.exoduscry.com
www.nefariousdocumentary.com
The leader of Exodus Cry, Benjamin Nolot, and his team over a period of a few years have traveled to 19 different countries documenting and exposing the global sex trade. The documentary is known as Nefarious: Merchant of Souls. The team is currently on tour showing the film throughout the U.S.

Marissa Burt's picture

Oh, would you please look at the Children's Uplift Programme in Dhaka, Bangladesh?

They are doing some fabulous work with women and children coming out of prostitution, enabling them to find viable work and living situations. Many of these women and children were homeless - some unknowingly trafficked and others turning to prostitution out of desperation. Many live on the streets and, after seeking shelter in the public areas near religious buildings, are instead preyed upon and trafficked. CUP builds relationships with these women, providing a safe place for them to come during the day (and a night shelter), and then works with them to achieve independence. You can read more about their current work at http://www.childrensupliftprogramme.org/p/home.html

And I'm happy to give you personal contact info. if needed.

I suggest ExodusCry.
I went to a screening called "Nefarious: Merchant of Souls" over the weekend at KUMCGW in Northern Virginia.
It was presented by ExodusCry, a prayer movement that exists to end modern day slavery through prayer, awareness, and action.
I HIGHLY recommend watching this documentary that depicts the reality of the sex industry in the world today, from Moldova to Thailand to Las Vegas. It was intense and eye opening, absolutely convicting. Exoduscry realizes that God is able to end human trafficking but He is also able to set the captives free spiritually and restore them/us back to the dignity and worth He had first given us.

Here is the link to watch a trailer of the documentary:

Please consider the NGO my mother works with in VIenna, Austria. I would be glad to provide personal information if you would so desire. Because Austria is so central, the women this NGO are working with come from all over, but mainly Eastern Europe and Africa (more specifically Nigeria). The NGO is at a point of wanting/needing to provide a safe- house for women trying to escape prostitution. Even though this NGO is not in a country classified as "low or medium in development," it is working with women who do come from such countries. It is also in the process of networking in order to establish connections in the lands of origin.

Because their work is so sensitive, they do not have a website. Please let me know if you want to contact them. Thank you!

Red Window is based in Cebu. They work to facilitate a process of economic, social and spiritual reconciliation for survivors of trafficking in the Philippines.

They don't do the rescuing, but they help give these men and women a chance to make a life for themselves in the real world. Red Window teaches these victims how to write resumes, and ace interviews, they give these people a second chance at life.

They're doing selfless work. But every victim who walks into Red Window's doors is given an opportunity to find success.

For more information visit their website:

I would like the recommend the Mirror Foundation in Chiang Rai, Thailand. They do amazing work through a number of projects helping the Hill Tribe people of Thailand. One of their main projects is working to combat Human Trafficking of Hill Tribe Children & adults. They do amazing work, and I know this grant would be of great assistance to them.
Thank you, Simone.

Please consider Someone's Child based in Bend, OR. They are a brand new NGO with the specific focus of educating and empowering mothers to fight human trafficking. People cannot get involved until they understand the problem. And the problem of human trafficking is so overwhelming that many of us learn and then sit in a state of shock... Eventually doing nothing. Someone's Child tajes the position that EVERYONE can do something and focuses on educating toward action. From them, I understand how my purchasing power makes a difference and how easy it is to join the chorus of voices demanding an end to modern slavery.

Free the Girls - Supports former victims of human trafficking in Africa by assisting in start-up microenterprises of bra sales. Great people (I know a few from my church in Denver), low overhead, 100% profits to the start-ups. More info at their website freethegirls.com or their facebook page. Thanks for supporting this issue in whatever form it ends up being!

Rhen Abad's picture

I would highly recommend COALITION AGAINST TRAFFICKING IN WOMEN - ASIA PACIFIC (CATW-AP) based in Quezon City, PH. Their work is being acknowledged by the United Nations and is also accredited by UNESCO. One of their projects is about the Demand Side of Trafficking. They educate young men and women about gender issues, trafficking and prostitution. This grant will help them conduct more trainings and educate more youths and students to fight against human trafficking.

I highly recommend Kwagala Project in Uganda.

http://kwagalaproject.org/

This NGO not only rescues victims of human trafficking, but focuses on rehabilitation. The girls are brought into a loving home where they receive counseling, compassion, love, education, and respect. Kwagala Project believes that these girls can heal from the wounds of their past and become leaders in their community and in the world. They are already seeing the results of this and just sent their first girl to University.

Chab Dai Coalition is a coalition of 50 FBOs working against human trafficking and exploitation in Cambodia. In addition to providing training, capacity building opportunities, and forum opportunities to members, Chab Dai works to raise the standard of care among national staff working with trafficking survivors; and has a prevention program working directly in vulnerable communities. In addition to working with member organizations, Chab Dai has over 30 partners including UN agencies, international development agencies, and government agencies; and works to build bridges between Christian and non-Christian NGOs and groups.

Other programs are Chab Dai's Case Support Program (doing direct intervention assistance with community leaders who suspect trafficking/abuse), research initiatives, and the Community Heroes program, training Cambodian community members to use their voice against abuse and trafficking in the community.

Chab Dai is directed and run by a team of 4 national staff (2 women and 2 men), and was established in 2005.

Carol Fenton's picture

I recommend Catholic Charities OSSIP program (http://www.catholiccharitiesoregon.org/services_human_trafficking.asp), because they are the ONLY organization in the entire state of Oregon supporting foreign born victims/survivors of human trafficking, and after 4 year of providing these critical services to a growing number of persons - their grant is at risk. This would mean there are no services in the entire state of Oregon for foreign born victims of human trafficking.

Wendy's picture

I recommend International Sanctuary. www.isanctuary.org www.shopsanctuary.org They end the cycle of human trafficking through their sanctuary centers: providing opportunities to survivors of human trafficking in rehabilitation, self-healing, vocational training, medical assistance, education, and employment.

Gia Ibarra's picture

I recommend, Project AK-47

Project AK-47 rescues child soldiers in Southeast Asia and Latin America.

Over 100,000 kids are carrying machine guns in the armies of Southeast Asia. Instead of walking to school, they march to war. Instead of playing, they train to kill. Project AK-47 exists to rescue and care for them.PROJECT: AK-47 exists to rescue and care for the children exploited as child soldiers in the drug cartels and armies of Asia and Latin America.

I recommend Ratanak International, a Canadian-based Christian organization working in Cambodia, especially with very young children who have been trafficked for sexual exploitation. Ratanak was founded by Brian McConaghy, an ex-RCMP forensic scientist who became involved in the issue of sex trafficking in Cambodia when he was consulted in a case involving a Canadian-born pedophile.

Website: http://ratanak.org/
Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/62154361501/

If you cannot donate to a Canadian organization, then I recommend one of Ratanak's partner organizations, Agape International Missions (AIM), whose work with the Cambodia children rescued out of sex trafficking is featured in the documentary Nefarious: Merchant of Souls (trailer: http://nefariousdocumentary.com/).

Restore NYC is great, however, it's not in a developing country. I would recommend Lighthouse Thai's ministry Lighthouse In Action. They are a nonprofit working in Cheng Mai, Thailand to help prevention (caring for children who are at risk at being taken), rescue (going into brothels and rescuing the girls) AND restoration after the girls have been pulled on out. Their workers are on the streets on Thailand talking to girls in the sex trade and pimps as well.

Len Bundy's picture

I also want to put down my support for Lighthouse in Action! A great ministry working on variable fronts to reduce human trafficking in Thailand. It has been incredible to witness the transformation in the girls lives that have been brought out of prostitution and to see their hearts changed by the love of Jesus Christ!

Jason C.'s picture

I could not think of any other org that helps out like World Concern does. They have a solid action plan that executes rescue, rehabilitation, and development for children in Thailand and Cambodia. Also, they have set programs to educate young children to prevent that from happening in the first place.

World Concern is a people living out word and deed. They understand the urgency and take action. I hope you strongly consider them for this grant One Day's Wages is giving.

I recommend Breaking Chains, www.breakingchains.org

Breaking Chains ministry works to combat trafficking in Mexico and other parts of Latin America. Their missionaries are extremely effective at going to the streets and, by sharing Christ’s love, getting girls to willingly give up lives of prostitution, abuse and drugs. My Daughters’ House is their sister ministry, with a healing and deliverance program that God is using to produce amazing results, as victims receive the personal care and attention they need for true discipleship. Victims are not only led to Christ, they become new creations in Christ Jesus set free from past hurts, acting on Jesus’ promise of new life in Him.

I would like to nominate the Florida Coalition Against Human Trafficking. They are an amazing organization who do so much in regards to the issue of human trafficking. The Florida Coalition Against Human Trafficking was founded by Anna Rodriguez. Anna found her first human trafficking case in January of 1999. This case is U.S vs. Tecum, which became a landmark case in the fight against human trafficking. The survivor of that case was the first recipient of a T visa in the U.S. Anna has been recognied by President George W. Bush and Senator Marco Rubio for her dedication to the issue of human trafficking. Anna was also inducted into the Fl Women's Hall of Fame in 2011.

The Florida Coalition Against Human Trafficking educates to community and trains frontline workers on the issue of human trafficking. By educating frontline workers and the community in gegeral, FCAHT is able to identify victims of human trafficking throughout the state of Florida.

The Florida Coalition Against Human Trafficking also provides case management services to victims of human trafficking. FCAHT has worked with both International and Domestic victims. FCAHT has also worked with victims of domestic servitude, labor trafficking and sex trafficking.

Please visit www.stophumantrafficking.org

Without hesitation I would recommend Florida Coalition Against Human Trafficking in Clearwater, FL. To know this group is a true privilege, they are real life saints with a real calling of helping victims of these horrendous crimes. Just because it is not a 3rd world country does not mean that an area is not affected by human trafficking and FCAHT goes above and beyond to see trouble in many areas where it would otherwise be overlooked. They also provide aid in not just a small area, rather the entire state of Florida which is an immense task for any one organization. It is an honor to be able to recommend Florida Coalition Against Human Trafficking because of their selflessness, unbridled service and dedication to an amazing cause.

RachelElizabeth's picture

I strongly recommend Agape International Missions (AIM). Founder Don Brewster is featured in the documentary Nefarious: Merchant of Souls and the upcoming documentary The Pink Room. The group works in Cambodia with a very small (but amazing) staff to prevent sex-trafficking, rescue the trafficked, and restore them. They work within the local community to change attitudes about sex-trafficking among the men and women who participate in selling and purchasing the women. Run a community center and a restoration center (out of what once was a booming brothel) that provides counseling, care and education for the rescued, and run a program called SilkWorks which provides good wage, safe employment (sewing and embroidering silk pillows) for women in the area. What they are able to be accomplish, given their incredibly small staff and budget is simply incredible.

I'd like to suggest Freedom and Fashion because of the no-pressure and very practical approach they take to educating the public to make a difference in their every day purchases and choices. By creating a platform for non-profits and fair trade businesses to share their mission and their wares, FnF creates an atmosphere and culture of conscious consumerism that doesn't make it overwhelming for an average person to engage in anti-trafficking choices and acts.

It starts locally and it starts with you.

Megan Burrell Jensen's picture

Please consider Compassion First. http://www.compassionfirst.org/ A small organization based in Portland, Oregon, whose mission is "providing hope-filled long-term solutions for situations of human disaster". I would have re-phrased into my own words but I couldn't say it any better. A dedicated team of individuals who work around the clock to change the course of these girls' lives.

Please take a moment to learn more.

Zoe International. http://zoechildren.org/

This ministry is amazing - not only do they have a huge vision and heart to educate others and rescue kids who are at risk of being sold or have been already, but they truly raise these kids as their own - with national Thai staff and American missionaries walking each of them through healing, helping them discover their passions and giftings, and equipping them to do it. They're also addressing this issue in the United States as well!!!

I strongly recommend LIGHTHOUSE IN ACTION!!!

Lighthouse in Action located in Chiang Mai, Thailand. They are one of a handful, if not the only, organizations that goes into the red-light district in Chiang Mai. Here is a video link about Lighthouse in Action http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Erv-4z8uK9w&noredirect=1
It is a faith-based non- profit org.... only 3 years old. Focusing on rescuing, and restoring the girls, ladyboys, and children in the red-light district in northern Thailand.
They are currently supporting a 17 year old ex-prostitute and her family and hoping to have other girls join the restoration, during the next months, since tourist season is coming up.
The American dollar goes far over there.

So PLEASE consider donating to them!!!

Thank You! Becky

Christine R.'s picture

LIGHTHOUSE IN ACTION is a faith-based non-profit organization that truly lives up to its name. Their focus is to rescue, love, comfort, and heal the hearts of children in the red-light district in northern Thailand who fell victim to Human Trafficking.
People in this organization have left comforts of family, and friends to dedicate their hearts towards saving these children from the horrors of abuse. I know one of the workers in LIGHTHOUSE IN ACTION, and she wholeheartedly supports these children with her love and expertise in Human Trafficking.
It is great to know that there is hope out there in the world, where there is an organization that not only helps someone to get "out" of their situation. But that there is also a place where children can also receive healing for their broken hearts. A place where in turn, these children can be a lighthouse in rescuing others.

I've known of El Pozo de Vida in Mexico City (The Well) for a short time, but I have had the opportunity to meet the people who run and organize it, and have seen the impact that they have had on the surrounding community there. I will actually be going there in a few weeks to help out and support it. They are doing great work.

Robin Jarrett's picture

I recommend LIGHTHOUSE IN ACTION too! I have had the privilege of seeing them in action when I spent some time in Thailand in April 2010 and THEY ARE ABSOLUTELY WAGING WAR AGAINST THE DARKNESS OF HUMAN TRAFFICKING IN CHIANG MAI!!! They are a small faith-based non-profit organization that goes out into the red-light district and builds relationships with the women, ladyboys, and children enslaved in the human trafficking industry. Once they establish a trusting relationship, they share Christ with them and help them find a way OUT!!! Lighthouse In Action also has a coffee house called Wongen Cafe where they educate people about human trafficking, and provide a place for women who get out of the industry to work! This organization is doing a mighty work for the Kingdom and could really use some financial help! Please consider them!!!!1

Lighthouse in Action in Chiang Mai, Thailand is an organization of three years old going into the red-light district to build relationships and bring change to that area. They are one of a handful of organizations that go into the red-light district in Chiang Mai. A faith-based, non-profit organization really set to bring change in northern Thailand. Here is a video about the organization: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Erv-4z8uK9w

Please consider donating to Lighthouse in Action.

Lighthouse in Action is one of a handful, if not the only, organizations that goes into the red-light district there.

Lighthouse in Action is only three years old and focuses on rescuing, and restoring the girls, ladyboys, and children in the red-light district in northern Thailand.

This is a faith-based organization that is currently supporting a 17 year old ex-prostitute and her family with the hopes of other girls joining the restoration during the next months.

This is such a noble cause. All of these nonprofits are deserving, but I give my support to Lighthouse in Action.

cue Jean's picture

please Consider El Pozo de Vida (The Well) In Mexico City They are a small but full of compassion and committed to helping free women.

Bob Kendall's picture

Please consider El Pozo Del Vida for your support. They are a bare bones ministry on a shoestring buget. They are doing a fantastic work in a very difficul area with major opposition. The money. Would make a huge difference and I believe you definately get the most value for the funds. Thank you in advance!

Peco's picture

I recommend Lighthouse in Action.
It is a non–profit organization in Chiang Mai, Thailand that goes into the red-light district there. I am not sure whether any other organization does that. They aim to rescue and restore the women and children in the red-light district there and are currently sponsoring a 17 year old ex-prostitute and her family and hope to do so for many more.

In the red-light district they actively seek to build relationships with those enslaved and let them know that they are loved and that there is an alternative for moving forward.

They also have a café where they educate young people about human trafficking before they venture out into the world of work.

Even though they are relatively young and doing amazing work, they would be able to affect so many more lives in the fight against human trafficking with this money.

Lincy's picture

Hi I would love to recommend El Pozo Del Vida (aka) The Well. It's a project going on in Mexico that's against human trafficking. Even though it maybe a small movement now. I do believe that it will bring great change in the future! I think it would be really cool if you could support them!

Melina's picture

Lighthouse in Action,located in Chiang Mai,Thailand needs a lot of financial support. They run a coffee shop by day, and at night, they walk the streets of the Red Light District. Their mission is to build relationships and trust with the girls and ladyboys, and to show them a better quality of life is available to them. They have been in business for 3 years and are currently supporting a girl and her family(husband and soon), that left the bars to live life. The right every human being should have. I worked with them for a month, and my life was changed because of I was able to participate in this incredible mission.

Katherine's picture

Please consider Lighthouse in Action in Chiang Mai, Thailand. The organization was started because the founder realized the importance of reaching and helping just ONE MORE. Although the organization is still in its beginning stages and unable to reach thousands, the life of ONE MORE girl, ladyboy, or child that is reached is still important, to that person and their families and loved ones. The workers at Lighthouse in Action literally put their safety and possibly even their lives on the line by going into the red light district - it gets dangerous when you start messing with a pimp's income by pulling their girls off the streets and into a safe haven where they can change their lives and receive love.

From what I know, the workers at Lighthouse in Action are extremely passionate about saving one more girl, one more ladyboy, one more child, through any means possible. And this grant could go a long way in helping them save the victims of sex trafficking, one at a time, from a life of despair and hopelessness.

Tera's picture

I highly recommend El Pozo Del Vida (aka) The Well. They are an extremely committed and passionate group. Through their actions they are helping young girls heal from abuse. They provide a safe place for the girls to experience unconditional love and the needed tools to feel whole again. I am a part of another organization that works alongside of The Well and am blessed to partner with them in the area of emotional healing.

KJ's picture

I highly recommend El Pozo de Vida (The Well) in Mexico City. The team is serving girls who have been human trafficked, and they are making a huge impact and positive change in their lives and community around them. The staffs are great and serving with all of their heart. Financial support of any kind would be very helpful - they will be able to hire more teachers and support staff for the girls, as well as more living and school supplies and food. Please consider The Well~! Thank you!
