Join us for the 2027 Freedom Challenge!
The Freedom Challenge is all about a free way to raise money for Survivors.
Project Rescue has been serving in Southern Asia since our founding in 1997. Here, at-risk children and women in exploitation are rescued and begin their restoration journey from the safety of one of our partners’ homes, schools, or aftercare centers.
We walk shoulder to shoulder with every survivor, providing holistic care, trauma counseling, food and safe housing, education and vocational training, and community and fellowship to foster growth and independence.

This challenge was inspired by the Freedom Tour, a community of people who have been cycling to bring hope and freedom to kids rescued from human trafficking since 2013. Generous sponsors cover all up-front expenses of their rides, so 100% of donation go to support the children at our HOMES OF HOPE. Since 2013, the Freedom Tour has raised more than $223,000 to help the children of Project Rescue receive life changing holistic care!
