The Nyaka AIDS Orphans Project (NAOP) is working to free orphans from the cycle of poverty by providing a high-quality, free education, both formal and informal, to children who have been orphaned due to HIV/AIDS in order to counteract pervasive hunger, poverty, and systemic deprivation.

In rural Nepal, an historic tradition, called Kamlari, permitted destitute families to sell their daughter's labor. Now, however, the Nepal government has banned the practice. Yet, many families still carry on the tradition, gaining little more than $50 a year for each daughter sold into bonded servitude. This program provides the family with a goat or pig as substitution for the daughter's wages, brings the girl home and ensures her access to education.

The project provides 850 street children with the emotional, physical, spiritual, educational and economic needs to facilitate their transition off the streets and back into the community.

DARE Network's Teens for Kids Project will support , Art, and Music as an alternative to addiction & violence for girls and boys in 5 Refugee camps on the Thai/Burma border.

The Indentured Daughters Program is one of the most important of NYF's programs to help children in Nepal. This project rescues young Nepali girls who have been sold into bonded servitude by destitute families who need the income from their daughters' labor. NYF's humane answer to this horrible practice is to bring the girls home to be educated, while giving the family either a piglet or goat which, when sold at maturity, will provide a profit equivalent to what the daughter would have earned.

This project will provide a regular supply of basic foods and other items to the elderly population in parts of rural Guatemala, whilst educating families on age related issues.

No human should ever be enslaved. ITEMP is committed to rescuing those that are trapped in the horror of human trafficking. By providing the support, care and rehabilitative services that each victim requires, ITEMP is able to break the chains, help make them whole once more and build brighter futures. Help us change lives.

Nyaka AIDS Orphans Project educates orphans in 2 free primary schools. We use a holistic approach that includes 2 daily meals, access to clean water, medicine, sanitary products, and assistance for their caretakers who are typically their grandmothers. Despite walking 7 miles to school and living without electricity, our students are outperforming most others. We've promised to fund their education up to university as long as they pass their exams. 100% of our first 3 classes have done so!

HERA provides entrepreneurship training and mentoring support to enable the economic independence of formerly trafficked women. Building on the womens strengths as survivors, HERA recruits and trains a diverse group of professional volunteers as mentors to help reintegrate these women into the formal economy. The combination of inspirational training, and long term 1:1 support really gives the women the springboard from which they have the opportunity to rebuild a new life.

We will provide 100 HIV/AIDS orphans in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe, with the legal help they need to secure basic documents, enabling them to register in schools and supported homes, take exams, and access the benefits and inheritance that will lift them out of poverty.
