We journey together toward hope, healing, and restoration with survivors and communities impacted by sexual exploitation in the Philippines.
Channy’s Story
“I encountered lots of obstacles on my journey to where I want to be . . . I was keeping that problem for such a long time and I didn’t tell anyone about it . . . ever since I came to My Refuge House, I learned the importance of education. Now I look forward to graduating and finishing my Senior year of High School . . . MRH is like a helping hand, binding together everyone who they support.”
According to the most recent statistics in the Philippines, there has been a surge in cases of the Online Sexual Exploitation of Children (OSEC): from 19,000 suspicious transactions in 2019 to almost 50, 000 in 2020, with the average age of 11.
