End Slavery this End of Financial Year.
We need your help now more than ever to put an end to slavery.
Today we find ourselves at an urgent crossroads in our mission to end trafficking, slavery, and abuse. Imagine dedicating three decades to a cause, only to see the issue get worse and spread, due to global crises and conflicts. This situation doesn't make us give up; it makes us want to help even more because the people we're trying to help need us now more than ever.
Survivor Care
Hagar's safe homes and community-based care programs provide individualised support to women and children who have suffered human trafficking, slavery and abuse.
How we end slavery
Preventing Exploitation
We equip and train at risk communities, survivors and their families and communities to stop trafficking and exploitation before it starts.
Strengthen Systems
Through partnership with local communities, national governments and global leaders, we work to transform the systems that perpetuate abuse.
Malis Story
Growing up in a financially unstable family on the outskirts of Phnom Penh City, Cambodia, Malis took on the responsibility of supporting her family at a young age. At 16, she left home to work in the garment industry, hoping to alleviate their financial struggles. However, she fell victim to the false promises of a wealthy Chinese man and was forcibly taken to China. There, she endured two years of captivity, being forced into sexual activities and domestic servitude. Despite multiple failed attempts to escape, she was eventually arrested and brought back to Cambodia.
Hagar supported Malis upon her return, providing necessary healthcare, counselling, and basic necessities at the Home of Love. They also helped her reintegrate with her family and funded a new fishing boat for their future. This enabled them to earn a sustainable income and allowed Malis to pursue educational and career opportunities, including learning Chinese.
Today, Malis is an inspiring leader in her community, symbolising resilience. As a Chinese interpreter in Phnom Penh, she not only improves her family's living conditions but also empowers and protects other women by sharing her experiences and raising awareness about human trafficking. Her journey from exploitation to advocacy showcases her strength and the important role Hagar played in her recovery and success.
