Fight Human Trafficking
CRM’s Human Trafficking work comes with two goals:
First, provide support for children so they stay home while educating them about the danger of human trafficking. Second, we arrange various events in remote villages through a documentary video presentation, and a leaflets distribution, followed by teaching. Our vision is that every poor child in Nepal would have the opportunity to have their basic needs met so they will stay home, attend school, escape extreme poverty, and learn about the horrors of human trafficking.
Another very important way CRM Nepal interrupts human trafficking efforts is by finding safe homes for orphaned, homeless, and endangered children. Street children are at risk of being trafficked, so CRM Nepal provides meals at popular slum areas in Kathmandu.
Sadly, 5,000 to 7,000 children are trafficked or sold into bond slave labor each year in Nepal. This crushes our hearts and makes us strive to reach every child, in order to prevent these evil things from happening. CRM is currently supporting 209 children by giving them food, places to stay, and the Gospel Message.
Our target group is the Low-caste people, also known as Dalit. These poor children are more than likely orphaned or destitute. CRM Nepal believes that when children are in these above categories, their chances of being trafficked increase dramatically.
Introducing the modern-day slave trade…
Trafficking of young girls to India for the purpose of prostitution is probably the busiest ‘slave trade’ of its kind within the world. Poor young girls and sometimes boys are sold, used, abused, and then discarded like rubbish when they are no longer healthy or profitable. Many get sick, so without the right care and nourishment, they die. Most are never heard from again.
