For the entire month of May, International Justice Mission (IJM) is excited to partner with FLORISTRY by ART OF LIVING and PAPER & TEA in Hong Kong to bring you exclusive gift opportunities while helping mothers like Soniya and their families thrive.

From Slavery to Freedom

Soniya and her husband worked at a rice mill, hoping to build a better life for their two young sons. But the owner tricked them into taking an advance payment and continued to add charges to this debt that would be impossible to ever repay with their low wages. Soniya’s family was trapped in bonded labour, a form of modern-day slavery.

When our IJM field office learned about the rice mill, they quickly gathered evidence and coordinated with local authorities on a rescue. In all, 15 people were freed from the rice mill, had their debts canceled and were paid restitution.

After completing IJM’s two-year aftercare program, Soniya’s family is less vulnerable to exploitation, and she has launched her own small business. She’s now learning to be an advocate for others. They have also welcomed a beautiful baby girl into their family!

By shopping our Special Collaboration or becoming a Freedom Partner this May, you can honour someone important in your life by helping more families together.
