Rain Freedom Campaign
We leverage existing resources & partnerships to turn your gift into freedom for one person!
Help us reach our goal of repatriating 15 victims of modern-day slavery from the Middle East back to sub-Saharan Africa, Southeast Asia and other home countries. Most are single mothers or individuals looking to support their family, exploited and deceived by agents promising work opportunities.
Each $1,350 we raise represents a new beginning for a person who is trapped, making them vulnerable to violence, sickness & abuse.
We have reached over $18,800 dollars in giving already. This leaves us with around $1400 to go or just about the same amount it takes to repatriate one more woman. Your creativity and generosity will help make it rain freedom!
Active Cases: The Hope of Freedom
Rain Collective's Repatriation Negotiator is working on several urgent cases. Although the names have been changed, these are real quotes and glimpses of stories of people who need immediate resources.
"I have been beaten three times now. I came for the sake of my kids, but I don't want to be here anymore. The people who have trapped me here are not good at all, they treat me worse than a dog. I work all day and I cry all night, but I don't want to die here. Please help me go back home!" -Mariam
“When I ran away, the police called the woman at the office to come get me. She punished me by beating me with a wooden cane, then locked me up for 3 months before putting me in another house. I attempted to kill myself because I am dying slowly here. I cannot leave because they have my passport and I have no money." -Harriet

Additional expenses specific to the case
"When people regain freedom, their lost hopes and dreams flow back into them like oxygen into a newborn. Their joy is unimaginable. The unique, special people they have always been begins to resurface. Though for many, restoration also takes time and care. Their gratitude is immense; they never forget the people God used to make their miracle possible." -Repatriation Negotiator
Immediate Needs.
Our negotiator is in direct contact with women who are awaiting the funds and opportunity to go home. Some wait in safe houses, while others are in more immediate danger. When you give, you are equipping our team with vital resources to help organize the logistics of their safe return as soon as possible. Would you consider rallying your network to sponsor the repatriation of one woman this year? Whether you"donate your birthday"or host a special fundraiser in your community or leverage your small business., every donation will make a direct impact on the lives of real people.
