O.U.R. has partnered with Mission823 to serve children and youth in Ukraine who are at risk for being trafficked. Mission823 builds and operates homes for abandoned or rescued children in Ukraine to have a safe space to live, and receive education and psychological care. They also provide humanitarian relief to at-risk families and children in the community. They estimate that 15,000 children will age out of the orphanage system each year, and without support and opportunities, they can become targets of human trafficking. With O.U.R.’s support in October and November, Mission823 provided COVID-related humanitarian relief to 115 children. This included providing family support and distributing food to 53 impoverished families. In addition, O.U.R. was able to support 9 at-risk youth in one of the family homes. These 9 children love to serve with the Mission823 team at safe community outreach events. Prevention work is vital in the fight to end child trafficking and exploitation. We are grateful to support and empower organizations internationally who are best positioned to protect the children in their country.
