Ways to Donate

We believe that you should be able to direct your donation to the program that feels right for you. Your donations make the difference between freedom and slavery or children worldwide. 

Join the fight. 

Together, we can liberate the victims of this global epidemic, one child at a time.

Please note the donation platform we use, GiveButter, adds a default to “tip” option. This does not go to us, but goes to the platform. GiveButter doesn’t charge fees to non-profits so we see more of your donations. The tip option is how they cover their expenses and provide the service for free. This can be manually changed to $0 or 0% by selecting “other” in the tip section. Including this option allows us to use the platform for free, but there is no obligation for you to tip.

From rescue to restoration, your generous gift helps us do it all!

N

Rescue Victims

We find children and adults in vulnerable communities who are trapped in sex trafficking and labor slavery and bring them to safety.

N

Restore Survivors

We transport children to a safe location where they are given food and medical care to treat immediate needs.

N

Raise Up Generations

We provide education, trauma therapy, and counseling to survivors, and give them the training and tools to thrive and break the cycle of trafficking.

You Belong Here

This incredible community is composed of generous, compassionate, and determined people like you who are committed to living in a slave-free world! 

“When folks with one heart and resolve come together in love and unity for a child they’ve never met, greatness happens. CRI is above any organization I have had the honor to train and work with. Rescue, restore, and raise up starts with the heart and a lot of hard work. CRI is committed to excellence in all they do.”

~ Brenda Lutz

“I have been working with Children’s Rescue Initiative for the past three years in Anti-Human Trafficking and Child Exploitation initiatives. They are one of the finest organizations I have worked with in my 28 year career as a law enforcement officer and US Government Security contractor. Blessed to be a part of their group.”

~ Joseph Sweeney

“I met Bruce, the Founder, years ago, and I was immediately touched by CRI’s mission. This organization truly has its heart in the right place and works only with the best people who are literally putting themselves in harm’s way for the benefit and love of those less fortunate. To me they are heroes and I feel so blessed to know and call them friends!”

~ Miranda Coppoolse

“I am a grandmother to 14 and the thought of one of them being abused in the way we know children are suffering today is unbearable. I have supported CRI since 2019 because they take action to rescue the most vulnerable men, women and children throughout the world. Giving is a way for me to be directly involved and a part of every rescue.”

~ Mia Owens
