Human Trafficking in Cambodia
w
ith lack of opportunities for income, selling a child becomes the
fastest
and easiest way to provide basic needs for the entire family
A virgin can be sold for the equivalent of a year’s wage-- $500 for a week of servitude
A child that has been previously sold can
be
re-sold for $30-$90
per night
Girls are primarily sold to local military and government officials
They can also be sold as escorts at the karaoke barSlide4
Poverty + Crisis
= Human
TraffickingSlide5
Each person is created in God’s image:
“So God created human beings in his own image.
In the image of God he created them; male and female he created
them.” Genesis 1:27God has created each individual for his good works:“For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus,
so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.” Ephesians 2:10Jesus was sent to live and die for everyone:
“For God loved the world so much that he gave his one and only Son,
so
that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.” John 3:16
As Christians, how do we respond?
What does God say?Slide6
CGI exists to provide a pathway out of poverty through education, vocational training and business development. We work primarily in Cambodia and many of those we serve are victims of– or vulnerable to– human trafficking.Slide7

Because of my illness, I am often tired, sometimes it is difficult for me to work.
Before, I did not always have enough money to buy food or the medicine I need, but now, I can afford these things.
