She Is Safe is a trusted authority with decades of experience in anti-trafficking work across Africa, the Middle East, and Asia.
Survivor-Led: In 1983, Michele and Daniel Rickett were sent to Nairobi, Kenya with their two young daughters to serve with an international nonprofit.
Nothing prepared them for what they witnessed. Michele looked into the eyes of a 12-year-old little girl named Dunia* and realized she was a domestic slave who was soon to be sold into child marriage.
The horror of witnessing little girls being abused and sold touched deep scars from Michele’s own childhood experiences of abuse and exploitation at the hands of her father. She is a survivor of commercial sexual exploitation of a child (CSEC). And she knew she needed to help rescue these forgotten women and girls.
After much prayer, research and careful planning, She Is Safe was established in 2002 to free and equip women and girls who are most at risk of being abused and sold. In partnership with indigenous leaders and local nonprofits, we serve in some of the most high-risk and least-reached communities around the world to prevent, rescue, and restore women and girls from being trafficked.

Your monthly gift will provide life-changing intervention for a girl at risk of abuse and slavery.
We have uncovered the root causes of slavery, identified best practices, and created long-term local partnerships that successfully free and equip women and girls to become who God created them to be.
