Prayers
are powerful:
When we consider
the cries for justice in our world, we place our
confidence in God who loves justice and answers prayers.
God calls on His people to pray about
situations of
injustice. He tells us that the earnest prayers of the righteous
are powerful and effective.
(James 5:16) |

Donations: Helping
to make a difference.
Hope Returns makes every effort to be diligent in helping those who are
suffering and afflicted. Your donation helps to positively impact
the lives of the impoverished and those innocent victims suffering at
the hands of human traffickers.
We rely on donations to support and develop programs that provide the
kind of care that these victims require, including a loving safe home,
counseling, medical needs, education and spiritual hope.
Please consider becoming a monthly partner in the fight against human
trafficking. All these programs—prevention
and aftercare—need
your financial support.
Thank you for responding to this call to action against such an
atrocity of injustice
to humanity.

Kids Helping Kids!
Our
“Kids Helping Kids!” program is designed to educate students
about child trafficking, helping them to keep out of harm’s way, and to
encourage them to take up this cause by helping in the
fight against child trafficking. This modern-day slavery is a huge
issue today and with certainty will become their problem of tomorrow.
Kids
genuinely want to help in the fight against child trafficking…they
agree that kids
aren’t for sale!

Getting Involved: Becoming the hands and feet.
It's exciting to see how people are becoming involved recently, wanting
to help in any way they can to end this modern-day slavery. Some
of the ways to become involved in the fight against human trafficking
include:
Assisting
in public awareness - Talk
about it...tell others what you know about this injustice, helping to
mobilize them to get on board with this cause. Ending
modern-day slavery is not the responsibility of only a handful of
people. As members of humanity, we all have a responsibility to
put a stop to this global atrocity.
Corporate-Partnering
with Hope Returns - Becoming a corporate partner in support of
Hope Returns.
Sponsoring events and becoming a voice of support. See
featured corporate partner, New
York Fashion Designer, Lauren Bagliore.
Fundraising
- People are helping to change lives by holding fundraising events such
as bake sales, car washes, home parties, movie nights with applicable
movies, fashion shows, dancing performances, musical performances,
etc. Whatever your skills, contributing by holding a fundraiser
of some type is an honourable way of saying, "No" to human trafficking.
Missionary work
- On the preventative side of human trafficking, there are
opportunities for those who have a heart to help in the field. Due
to the sensitive nature and security issues of the aftercare projects,
however, only a few have the opportunity to visit these specific
facilities.
Subscribe to our
newsletter - By subscribing to our newsletter, you will be
kept informed on
the latest activities and immediate requirements we have in our fight

Advocacy
- Write to members of government to ensure the proper laws are in
effect
in the fight against human trafficking.
