A Note of Impact
We believe that through these awareness efforts, we’ve planted the seeds of prevention, empowerment, and community vigilance – essential pillars in the long-term fight against human trafficking.
Come on the Journey with us
Investing in girls’ education is one of the most effective strategies to combat trafficking. Empower HER Nepal operates a scholarship program that provides a protective pathway for young girls in Nepal, giving them the tools to change their lives and, ultimately, their communities. $70 a month gives one girl in Nepal everything she needs to stay in school - fees, supplies, uniforms, transport, hygiene essentials, plus mentorship and life skills. We focus on girls aged 8–18 in trafficking-prone, low-income communities.
We’re aiming to raise $25,000 to give 30 girls the chance to learn, grow, and shape their own future.
Donations in Australia are tax-deductible. Join us in making it happen here.
