Our short term trips wouldn’t be possible without partners to work with. They’re all over the world doing the work of global outreach on a daily basis and we’re just honored to come alongside them and be a part of God’s work through their ministries for a few weeks a year. Find out who they are below!
Agape International Ministries (AIM), Cambodia
In the US State Department’s Trafficking in Persons Reports, Cambodia is identified as a source, transit and destination country for child sex trafficking, and a country where severe forms of human trafficking occur. AIM’s mission is to end child sex trafficking in Cambodia with hope through the love and life of Jesus Christ and the church. Restoration homes, training for over 1,600 pastors and micro-lending options for families are just a few of the ways AIM is making a difference in Cambodia.
