Spring Update

Posted on May 25th, 2017 by She Is Safe

Dear Praying Friend,

You have been such an important part of what God is doing to make girls safe and free that I wanted to share a brief update with you.

Since our last report to you, our co-workers rescued 4 little girls, ages 4-8, from growing up in a brothel community in India. The girls are now in a She Is Safe-sponsored safe home where they are dearly loved, receiving education, developing their skills and forming faith for a lifetime.

Our Economic Empowerment work is multiplying and innovating – preventing the sale of girls and building up those who have been abused. Today, Syrian refugee girls are gaining new life and trade skills rather than being sold into marriage.

Our literacy, saving and lending program, along with new micro-enterprise training, is equipping mothers to be successful business owners – even in South Sudan, where women are earning enough to pay for their daughters to enter schools and universities… and so much more!

As you continue with us in this good work, we will see even more girls safe from slavery and free to change the way girls are viewed in the future.

Read more about this in our spring update, now available for digital download.

With much thanks,

P.S. Please share this exciting update with your friends and family.

Help Match a $50,000 Grant

Posted on December 7th, 2016 by She Is Safe

Dear Praying Friend,

Help us make every girl safe and free by doubling your impact today!

A generous donor family has offered a $50,000 Matching Grant to be used for sharing God’s love through She Is Safe learning and lending groups in India, Indonesia and South Sudan, and for abuse prevention for children in at-risk communities in Indonesia.

When your generous donation is applied to this opportunity, together, we will be able to reach and equip thousands more girls and women. We don’t want to leave this match unmet!

5/12/17 Update: The Matching Grant has been met! $55,000 raised by our supporters, combined with the $50,000 grant, means that $105,000 in funds will go directly to projects that support the world’s most vulnerable women and children!
