Human Rights Education and Trafficking Prevention

The Freedom Story was born from a documentary film called The SOLD Project.

When Producer Rachel Sparks learned about child sexual exploitation in Thailand, she decided to expose it through the power of film. After interviewing dozens of sex workers, common themes became apparent: poverty, a lack of education, and a lack of options.

Sparks met Tawee Donchai, who shared his vision of starting a trafficking prevention program in his village, where he had been witness to many of his peers being trafficked. The two then met Rachel Goble, who had spent years researching human trafficking at Fuller Theological Seminary and had seen the huge service gap in the area of prevention. The three partnered to found the organization.

Our human rights education, scholarships and resources empower at-risk Thai students to stay in school, pursue their dreams, and break the cycle of poverty and exploitation. Our efforts in the US are centered around telling dignifying stories that encourage people to become a part of changing our world for the better. Browse below to learn more.

OUR MISSION

We prevent child trafficking & exploitation through culturally relevant programs for vulnerable children & share their stories to empower creative, compassionate people to act.

OUR VALUES

Relationships

Whether our relationships with our beneficiaries in Thailand or those with donors and one another, we intentionally invest in our human connections each day.

TRANSPARENCY

From our finances to our needs, from our successes to our challenges, transparency is central in all we do.

Dignity

Our individual dignity is tied to the dignity of us all. Whether teaching human rights in Thailand or sharing stories in the US, we strive to highlight the dignity of each person.

RESILIENCY

Systemic problems require long-term, systemic solutions in the midst of a changing world. All of our programs are designed to provide adaptable solutions that last.

POSITIVITY

Even in the midst of the darkest situations, positivity inspires hope. And hope inspires action.

INCLUSIVENESS

Inclusion and dignity go hand in hand. We serve those in need without restrictions based on gender, race, religion, sex, age, background, nationality, et cetera.
