Freedom Fighters: Help End Child Trafficking
Operation Underground Railroad (OUR) is a beacon of hope in the darkness of modern human sex trafficking. Established in 2013 by Tim Ballard, a former Homeland Security agent, OUR operates globally with a mission to liberate victims from the clutches of exploitation. Through innovative tactics and unwavering determination, OUR conducts undercover operations to rescue individuals, dismantle trafficking rings, and prosecute perpetrators. Each successful operation brings a glimmer of optimism, demonstrating that with persistence and collaboration, it is possible to make a tangible difference in the fight against human trafficking.

At the heart of OUR's mission is a commitment to restoring dignity and empowering survivors. Beyond rescues, the organization provides comprehensive support services to aid in the recovery and rehabilitation of victims. From medical care to counseling and vocational training, OUR strives to equip survivors with the tools they need to rebuild their lives and pursue a future free from exploitation. This holistic approach instills a sense of optimism and resilience in survivors, demonstrating that despite the trauma they have endured, there is hope for a brighter tomorrow.

Your contribution to our Families Reunited Fund will directly aid OUR’s three strategies for operation: equipment, travel, and K9 programs. Camera equipment, recording devices, software. Travel expenses for undercover operators to dismantle international sex trafficking operations. OUR has sponsored Electronic Storage Device (ESD) detection K9 programs, in which K9 units are being trained to identify unique chemicals found in digital storage devices that store child sexual abuse material. Providing aftercare for survivors requires resources. Victimized children require medical attention, specialized therapy, legal advocacy, education, and post-program training. The Families Reunited Fund will direct contributions to sex trafficked victims who are rescued and returned to their families. You can help restore families!
