About
Us
The Child Liberation Foundation was founded in February 2017 with a passion and commitment to end child trafficking around the world. In 2023 we have expanded our efforts to not only doing child rescue missions but also in focusing on the rehabilitation and healing of childhood sexual trauma by providing tools, modalities, awareness and education.
Children Trafficked Globally
THE CHILD LIBERATION FOUNDATION IS AN ORGANIZATION WITH THE VISION OF LIBERATING HUMANITY FROM THE PAINS OF CHILDHOOD TRAUMA.
The average age of victims when they report child sex abuse
is 52 years old. Most victims live most of their adult life holding in deep-seated childhood trauma affecting different areas of their life such as relationships, intimacy, emotions, psychological wellbeing, self worth, love and purpose.
The Child Liberation Foundation has programs to help children, adolescents, and adults recover from sexual trauma.
We continue to fund organizations doing child rescue missions but our primary focus is in the healing and rehabilitation space. We fund the expansion of existing child safe houses as well as healing centers and other establishments that care for children. The Liberating Wings project will build additional rooms and facilities onto existing organizations to facilitate healing. We provide culturally driven programs that encompass training, holistic healing modalities, education, awareness, self defense, agriculture, arts and music, etc to help victims to address and/or release their trauma.
We are an all inclusive organization composed of men and women from all ethnicities, ages and backgrounds primarily led by four women. Personally we add integrity, equity, truth, respect, love, compassion, creativity, and community.
