Rescue Rise

Join the Fight to End Exploitation

At Rescue and Defend, much of what we’ve accomplished over the last seven years must remain confidential. Our partnerships and collaborations often involve sensitive operations where safety and privacy are critical. But make no mistake—lives have been saved, and futures have been restored. 


A New Focus: Prevention and Intervention

Through years of hands-on work, we’ve learned a hard truth:

It’s better to stop exploitation before it starts.

Since November 2023, our Intervention and Prevention Program has already protected 55 children from the dangers of trafficking and exploitation. We celebrate these victories, but there is so much more to do.

A WAY OUT!

For those already caught in exploitation, escape is just the beginning. Many have nowhere to turn for the healing and support they desperately need. That’s why Rescue Rise is launching a new short-term residential recovery program specifically for minors rescued from exploitation in Cambodia. This program will provide safety, training, and a fresh start. 


A Call to Action

Amy Carmichael, the legendary missionary who battled trafficking in India, once said:

"Satan is so much more in earnest than we are—he buys up the opportunity while we are wondering how much it will cost."

Evil doesn’t hesitate. We must not hesitate either.

If you believe human trafficking is evil, ask yourself:

What are you doing to stop it?

Maybe you’ve felt you’re too busy, or too far removed from the issue to help. But you can make a difference—right now.

At Rescue and Defend, we’ll take the risks. We’ll do the work.

All we ask is that you stand with us as part of the team.

Give Now. Save Lives. Fight Exploitation.
