During the global pandemic caused by Covid-19, Global Renewal was able to provide care kits for over 25,000 people without access to food, water, or medical supplies. Today, Global Renewal is in the process of establishing an anti-trafficking program and a safe house for child victims of trafficking and abuse while continuing to train community leaders on how to prevent and detect various forms of trafficking in their respective districts.

We work with various communities and government connections to aid in the rescue and restoration of children caught in slavery and abuse, the management of a safe house for young girls, the start of a safe house for young boys, community leadership training, online educational programs, and school sponsorships.

These visits provide opportunities for global team building, leadership training, and oversight for all community and anti-trafficking efforts. By maintaining a consistent physical presence, our executive team is able to see and experience the on-ground realities and day-to-day challenges of our global ministries so we can provide the support and strategy needed for success.

We believe in partnering with other ministries and charities working toward the same goals as Global Renewal as a way to make a greater impact in our mission and vision to see children rescued, communities transformed, and lives set free.
