You Can Help Bring the Dream to Life
In 2021, the government of Lesotho, in partnership with the International Organization of Migration and the government of Japan, provided a property where our Anti-Trafficking Shelter can operate rent-free for the next ten years! Now, we need to secure buildings for our Children's Homes. Will you help us bring this beautiful dream to life?
Why are we doing this?
We rescue vulnerable children from physical and sexual abuse, poverty, and deprivation. We do this with the financial support of our many generous donors and sponsors. But what if we could create an autonomous venue that generates the income we need to provide for these children?
We have drafted a plan and been gifted the land; now, it is up to us to make the dream of sustainability, safety, and growth a reality.
What is the plan?
We have big dreams for this property. When the entire complex is completed, we hope to have confortable homes to accommodate 32 children, a large auditorium and event space for church and community events, offices, income-generating space for training and business, guest lodging, and a medical clinic. This property will be a safe haven for our children and a vast resource for the community in Lesotho.
Below are the 5 phases within our plan to build this complex:
