“WE CARE, WE SHARE” Covid-Crisis Project
The Covid crisis and lockdown in SE Asia has put many families in need of essentials like food, water, medical supplies, and hygiene products. So, our teams on the ground in Cambodia and Vietnam have started the “WE CARE, WE SHARE” grocery-giving project to provide food, water, vitamins, hygiene kits, and other essentials for needy families and children. Our SE Asian leaders are raising funds and donations to provide these essentials for other needy community members and now, we’re asking the rest of the world to join the giving too! Partner with us to help our SE Asian brothers and sisters by giving below today!
Cost: $20 TO FEED ONE FAMILY
Micro-Business Projects
We’re always looking for ways to replace the income individuals and families make from human trafficking by providing better job opportunities and micro-business projects for them to pursue. Take jewelry making, for example. We showed a group of women living in a brothel village a picture of a pair of earrings bought in the Indonesian marketplace. These women were eager to learn how to make these earrings so they could begin to sell products, start small businesses, and begin earning a fair wage. We want that too. So we’re bringing in a jewelry shop owner to teach us how to make earrings, bracelets, necklaces, and rings. Another woman wants to start selling dried jackfruit—she just needs a dehydrator and a small business plan. Done, and done!
Cost: $100 per month | $1,200 per year
The Water Project
Everyone needs clean water. That’s why we want to provide a new water tank for an Indonesian brothel village where we have been meeting with community leaders to establish new jobs for the women, medical outreach programs, and a learning center for children. We donate large water bottles each month to provide drinking water for individuals, families, and the whole community.
Cost: $40 per family (50 families)
$2,000 per month | $24,000 per year
Food Distribution
Our Community Outreach Centers serve as a distribution point for rice, oil, and other essential supplies to feed hundreds of individuals and families living in remote, rural areas. Many of these people struggle to find food and other resources for themselves and their families. As we meet their desperation with practical needs, their lives are being elevated and we're able to build relationships, offer mentoring and education, and combat some of the most difficult issues that have plagued these regions for many years.

Medical Assistance
National Health Care Services combined with volunteer medical missions have helped us to provide medicine and necessary healthcare to many individuals and families living in small villages and remote areas of Southeast Asia. By meeting the real, practical needs of a community—doors are opened for relationships and education in healthcare, leading to a lifestyle of health, well-being, and positive transformation.

Meet Mama D.
In Cambodia, a mother of three named Mama D was in dire straits —she is HIV positive and no one would allow her to work for them (for fear of contracting AIDS). Our team was able to set up a compact fish pond—in a barrel! And now, she and her children are able to not only provide sustenance for their own family, but for others in the village as well.
“Now, I’m able to provide food for my own family and others too.”
