She is strong.
Together, we can make her safe.
Redeem International partners with local law enforcement authorities to protect widows and orphans from violent abuse and exploitation. Join our mission of redemption.
The Vicious Cycle of Violence and Poverty
A widow can't benefit from a new well if the water is poisoned.
An orphan won’t benefit from a farm program if her crops are destroyed.
An orphan won’t be empowered by education if she is raped on the way to class.
A family won’t thrive in their new home if it is burned to the ground.
“Violence is as much a part of what it means to be poor as being hungry, sick, homeless, or jobless. We will simply never be able to win the battle against extreme poverty unless we address violence.”
Gary Haugen, CEO, International Justice Mission

Enforcing the Law to Protect Widows and Orphans
Ensuring that Widows and Orphans are Safe Enough to Prosper
Through one case, we restore a single family to safety. Through a critical mass of cases, we create a deterrent impact that protects all the widows and orphans in the community.
