At the core of Every Daughter Matters (EDM) is a mission that goes beyond your average NGO charity. It is a call to action, a commitment to change, and a deep belief in the inherent worth and dignity of every young woman, no matter where she is from. For those who support us, it is more than just donating money—it is about transforming lives, safeguarding against harm, and contributing to a global movement to stop human trafficking.
Through their donations and involvement, supporters tell us of the personal benefits they experience in being part of something bigger than themselves. We often hear from our partners about personal growth, a deeper sense of purpose, and a profound connection to the young women and families they are helping. Testimonials from EDM’s supporters provide a window into the heart of the organisation’s work and showcase the profound impact it has on both the recipients and the donors themselves.

“Human trafficking was something we had heard about but hadn’t fully grasped until we became involved with a church supporting Every Daughter Matters. Seeing the practical support EDM provides and the visible transformation in the lives of the girls and their families deeply moved us to help. With every update, we’re reminded that our donations are truly making a difference, which gives us immense confidence in this mission. Having nieces ourselves, the thought of such horrors happening to them is unbearable. Girls are precious, and their futures deserve to be protected, which is why we feel so strongly about standing with EDM and contributing to this vital work.”

“Every Daughter Matters resonated deeply with me the moment I learned about it. My experience in Cambodia, working with Destiny Rescue and training young women who had been rescued from brothels, gave me a firsthand understanding of the horrors of trafficking. I firmly believe that God has a purpose for everyone, regardless of their background, and I feel compelled to help young women achieve their potential. It breaks my heart to know that so many are deceived into trafficking when they simply want to support their families.
Every donation to EDM directly helps these young women, supporting their education and skill-building through local teaching and mentoring programs. Seeing the eagerness of these girls to learn and embrace opportunities is incredibly inspiring. I’ve witnessed firsthand the joy and gratitude in their eyes as they rebuild their lives with hope and determination.
When I share EDM’s work with others, I often encounter disbelief that trafficking still happens. Showing real photos and videos is vital to raising awareness and encouraging people to get involved. Even signing up for a newsletter can open someone’s eyes to the scale of the issue and inspire them to help in any way they can.
For me, supporting EDM has been life-changing. From spending time in safe houses to seeing the operations at Border Surveillance Booths, every experience has been humbling and uplifting. Watching these girls reclaim their lives and embrace a brighter future has been one of the greatest joys of my life.”

“We are deeply inspired by Every Daughter Matters’ focus on prevention—stopping children from being trafficked before they endure unimaginable horrors. It’s a profound miracle to prevent even one child from being trapped in such a life. This approach complements our support of organisations like Destiny Rescue, which rescues children already enslaved, highlighting the devastation trafficking causes and the hope that prevention brings. Every daughter matters to God, and this mission is close to our hearts.
Through our donations, we hope to impact at least one child, sparing them from suffering and opening their hearts to the idea of a loving Saviour in Heaven. It’s incredible to think that such a small contribution can profoundly change a life. EDM’s passion and integrity assure us that our support goes directly to helping those who need it most, not lost in administrative costs.
On a personal level, supporting EDM has been humbling. It gives us perspective, reminding us how fortunate we are compared to the unimaginable struggles these children face. Even on our worst days, we can’t fathom the reality of their experiences, which makes this work all the more important.”

“The work of rescuing Nepal’s daughters before they are lost to unimaginable horrors is both wise and deeply compassionate. Reflecting on the lives of my own daughters and granddaughters, I realised I would do anything to protect them from such evils. This is God’s heart for all girls, and I am grateful to be part of this mission.
I hope my support can help fund the incredible efforts of border workers, provide rescues, and offer these young women hope for a bright and fulfilling future. It’s humbling to consider what any of us would do if it were our own child, friend, or relative at risk of such atrocities.
Supporting Every Daughter Matters has also opened my eyes to the ignorance and apathy that can exist in our own culture. This simple yet profoundly meaningful way of contributing has allowed me to align my heart with God’s rescue mission, and I am honoured to be part of it.”
The community surrounding EDM is more than a network of donors and partners—it is a family of like-minded individuals who believe every daughter matters. From initial inspiration to ongoing support, EDM creates a space for people to come together and make a meaningful difference in the lives of those most in need.
For anyone considering becoming a donor or supporter of EDM, the message is clear: your contribution won’t just change the lives of these young women—it will transform your own.
