Every day our trafficking hotline will ring.
Â
Sometimes the call is from a police officer or one of our other partners in law enforcement.
Â
Sometimes itâs a parent…those are always very emotional calls to take.
Â
But usually itâs a girl on the other end of the line calling for help. A girl trapped in human trafficking.
Â
We can always hear it in their voice. They are scared. Actually, theyâre terrified. Desperate for a way out.
Â
The fear and anxiety they are going through is unimaginable.
Â
Itâs a big step for them to call. Itâs also a RARE step. The Global Report of Trafficking of Persons said that less than 1% of victims are recovered.
Â
So, when our trafficking hotline rings…we take the calls very seriously!
Â
When the phone rang recently, it was another young girl who needed our help and itâs more than likely she had nowhere else to turn.
Â
She was at a bus stop in downtown Phoenix. She said she was âon the runâ from her trafficker. Heâd been forcing her to do horrible things for the past year.
Â
Normally… in situations like this, our security staff would spring into action. They would fire up a van and race off to pick her up.
Â
Normally… she would be brought to the Dream Center where a room would be waiting for her.
Â
But this situation WASNâT normal. We werenât about to do ANY of that for this young girl in need.
Â
You see, we are facing a harsh reality:
The human trafficking program at the Phoenix Dream Center is FULL.
Â
Itâs great that we are currently helping so many young girls receive the healing and restoration they need as they recover from the scars of trafficking.
Â
But for those girls still out there…itâs heartbreaking.
Â
Right now, we are unable to do anything for the girls on the other end of our hotline looking for help.
Â
We have a few rooms that have been down because they are under construction. Honestly, itâs taking a toll on our funding to be able to take in more girls than what we have room for.
Â
Thatâs why Iâm writing you today.
Â
Can you please help us with this?
Â
Weâre asking you to give your best gift ever today to make room for THE NEXT FOUR GIRLS who pick up the phone and dial that hotline.
Â
When we answer their call, we want to be able to tell them âYES! WE CAN HELP!â
Â
Itâs going to take a lot of money to make that possible, but please, just give what you can. Remember, 100% of it will go to bringing in THE NEXT FOUR GIRLS who come into our program.
Â
Please donate today to help THE NEXT FOUR GIRLS who need to be rescued and restored from the horrors of human trafficking.
Â
Itâs why the Phoenix Dream Center exists, but we canât do it without your help.
Â
Thank you for taking the time to read (and maybe share) this with your friends. I canât tell you how encouraged our whole team is to know that people like you are reading this and care!
