Family & Youth Sponsorship, Support for Front Line Organizations & Human Trafficking Prevention.
Mission & Vision
Mission:
To end poverty through family & youth sponsorship at Christmas time, to support and promote the work of other front line organizations, and to play a part in the eradication of human trafficking through education and awareness.

A community and world that is free from poverty, human trafficking and injustice so that everyone can live their lives to their full potential.

Changing the World is a Team Sport.
Poverty and Human Trafficking will not be eliminated by one organization alone. In order to put a dent in both these critical issues we must work together in collaboration with others valuing human dignity, respect, inclusion, equality and partnership.
