Honduras

Trafficking affects every country on our planet.

Honduras is no exception.

As a main transit country for human trafficking, the most vulnerable are often misled by false promises of a better life—or forced into a life of exploitation.

For years, there was not a single safe home for survivors in Honduras, leaving rescued girls with nowhere to turn.

Today, that has changed. Project Rescue—by God’s grace and with the support of our family and friends—has established the first safe home in the country dedicated to the care and restoration of exploited girls.

A place of safety.

In 2024, we placed a down payment on a home in Honduras. Today, this home is not only complete but is home to the first group of girls.

Here, girls receive counseling, education, and vocational training, equipping them for brighter futures. Most importantly, they are discovering a God who loves them, values them, and desires for them to thrive.

Our long-term goal is to add a full vocational training and education facility for these courageous girls and expand the capacity of the safe home.

Impacting survivors like Elana

Elana is 5 years old. She was born in a brothel but because of a bad marriage her mother walked out of it and after some years married another man who was her customer and wanted her to shift with him to his village… 

Elana was never accepted in the new family, and when her mother had two sons, the stepfather and his family began physically and verbally abusing her. When there was a threat to the life of Elana, her mother called her sister to take the child away. Elana's aunt rushed to the village and Elana started staying with her in a brothel…

Project Rescue started organizing Elana’s papers to bring her to one of our safe homes but her stepfather now started torturing Elana's mother demanding the child be brought back to the village…

When Elana's aunt discussed this with our team they encouraged her to come to the center and they all prayed for this situation.

Later, Elana's mother expressed her desire to have Elana stay with Project Rescue for a better future and an education. Elana's mother was willing to take the beating and abuse from her husband but wanted a better future for her child. Elana is now safe with our team and receiving an education.
