New Rescue girls Cambodia

NEWSLETTER  August 2010 Volume 2
In This Issue 2 new girls... 2 girls leave... Destiny Coffee House Overseas Volunteer Positions Vacant	Dear Friend,   Here are three really brief stories about some of what is happening in Cambodia. Thanks for the role you have played in helping these children, it is encouraging to know we are on this journey together!   God bless,     Tony Kirwan International President/Founder Destiny Rescue
2 new girls...   It is always exciting to welcome new girls into our rescue homes.  We recently had 2 new girls arrive in one of our Cambodian Rescue homes. The first girl was only 10 years old and the second 13 years old.   It is hard to imagine what goes through a man or woman's mind to justify selling or abusing a child. I doubt we could ever imagine the terror a child feels as they discover what has happened to them unless we have experienced something similar.   As we have been doing this for a long time now, it is reassuring to know that these kids will have the opportunity to heal... as they experience the unconditional love, counseling and care of our trained staff, they will be able to dream once again. Thank you for your role in helping these precious kids!  2 girls leave...  Over the last couple of months we have been able to successfully reintegrate 2 girls (Som and Dah) back with their respective families. Whenever possible we aim to get girls back with their families, back to normal life. Before this can happen our reintegration team investigates exactly what happened to each girl, who was responsible for the sale and/or abuse and determines whether there is any risk if the child was to return home. If the family played no role then our team starts the process of rebuilding the relationship with the child and her family, as well as doing training with the entire village when required. Som was able to return to her village with a pig purchased by Destiny Rescue. This is one of the ways we help the families to generate some extra income to assist in covering their basic needs long term. Dah, after being with us for 10 months was able to return to her village. Because of her mental disability, it was a challenge to complete simple daily activities like getting dressed, eating and toileting. It has taken a lot of love from her Girls' Home house family to take care of her, as a team they have done a remarkable job teaching her ways to take care of herself. With Dah's court case being finalised it meant it was safe for her to return to her village. It was so nice to hear her friends talk about the simple things like being able to get dressed and go to the bathroom by herself that she has achieved while being here. She is now happily back in her home village, living with her mother.   Destiny Coffee House - going strong...  In a little over 3 months we have seen the Destiny Coffee House continue to grow in popularity with locals and tourists alike. Even though the number of tourists is down from what is normal for this time of the year, we have still been able to operate with a profit - congratulations to Eileen (Cafe manager/trainer) and all the girls working so diligently to make it such a viable training cafe!

Destiny Rescue  NEWSLETTER August 2010  -  Volume 1

Dear Friend, I am excited to bring you the following story of yet another great result from our rescue teams. Thank you for everything you do that empowers us to continue to rescue more children from sexual slavery!   Enjoy!     Tony Kirwan Destiny Rescue International President / Founder     6 girls rescued...    Congratulations to the Destiny Rescue undercover teams as one more operation comes to an end, resulting in the rescue of another 6 young girls, all teenagers ranging in age from 14 years up. This brothel had a total of 12 girls and we were able to get all of the underage girls out except one, which we are still working on and will hopefully get out soon. What an awesome outcome! We would have loved to have been a fly on the wall when the pimp turned up to find that half of her income potential had disappeared - priceless! As we sat and talked to these children about what they have been through and what their family life was like... very quickly a common theme emerged. Without exception, these girls came from poor hill tribe families struggling to survive. Due to the fact that all parents (except one) were doing hard drugs and all their money was being used to feed their habits, there was no money to keep the girls in school and the girls were left in limbo wondering what could they possibly do to help support their families. They knew they lacked education so their job prospects were practically nonexistent. They had each tried working in the fields for a little while, like their parents did (when they weren't totally wasted from the drugs), but knew they couldn't do that for the rest of their lives. Then someone they knew turned up to their village and told them of a good job in the city, they were told they would be working in a restaurant serving customers.   Once they got to the bars/brothels they all discovered that there was a second meaning to "serving" the customers. They would have to serve the customers drinks and then they would be made to sit with the men and the men would do as they pleased... One of these young girls said this to us - "I hated how they made me drink, because if a customer bought you a drink you had to drink it and then they felt they could touch me anywhere...". Despite the shame and humiliation they felt as they endured the abuse of so many different men (using the term "men" very loosely), they felt a sense of pride when they could help their families. One of the girls told us - "The first time I got paid I was so happy, because I could now send money home to help my family...". Many, if not most hill tribe people have a low self worth, low self esteem. One of the girls said, "Once I started working I understood it was the easiest job for people like me..." she went on to say that many other girls from her village were doing the same thing.    Children in the sex industry is a worldwide crisis. While there is poverty , while there is racism and discrimination, while the perverted are not held accountable for their actions, while good people do nothing... the number of children in the sex industry will continue to increase. But as you and I persist and refuse to be silent, as we continue to give to this worthy cause we can expect to see more and more beautiful children rescued and empowered to realise their God given destinies. We thank you again for everything you have done towards rescuing more kids from a soul destroying life!   As always, there are many operations that are still ongoing and we expect positive outcomes soon, with many new leads being followed. We value your support and prayers as our teams continue to put it on the line to rescue these children. Thank you! Overseas Volunteer Positions Vacant...
