Globally millions are trapped in modern day\nslavery and exploited in the most heinous manner, leaving victims and\nsurvivors, brutally abused, traumatised, and mentally affected. The COVID-19\npandemic has expanded the breeding ground for criminals, leaving the most\nvulnerable at risk of being trafficked. During level five of COVID-19 lockdown,\nglobally we detected a surge in cases. The UN has predicted a rise in child\nlabour due to the economic crises resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. The <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hope to Heal\nFoundation is the first place of safety and care for survivors before their\ncases are handed over for investigation. Working with human trafficking over\nthe past few years, and researching cases, I identified the need for trauma\ninformed services and programmes for victims and survivors of Human\nTrafficking. My greatest concerns are rehabilitation and reintegration of\nsurvivors into society. Should they not receive the proper trauma informed\nservices and care, victims and survivors are at risk of being exploited and\nliving with mental health issues. Every victim and survivor has a massive\nimpact in communities and society at large. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I stepped in\nto fill the gap, opening the <strong>first Wellness Centre in SA<\/strong>, offering\nvictims and survivors of Human Trafficking a bouquet of Trauma informed\nservices, and programme through partnership with various Professionals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>I am pleased to announce,\nthe Hope to Heal Wellness Centre, a place where Healing begins and Dignity Restored.\n<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We have come\nso far in translating our conceptual Vision into a beautiful, tranquil reality,\nthrough generous donations, partners, and Professional service providers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I thank God\nfor blessing me with the opportunity to serve His children whose human rights\nhave been violated in such a cruel and heinous manner and for blessing me with\nsupport from people who are committed to end Modern-Day Slavery. God truly\nworks in amazing ways when real work needs to take place. He aligns you with\nall the right people. I have not done this by myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thank you\nkindly to Glynne Wolman, from The Angels Network, our Funders and Partners who\nwish to remain anonymous, our sponsors and my dearest friend Joanne Van Greunen.\nIt is through your kind support that victims and survivors will be receiving\nservices they deserve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thank you\nkindly to every member of the department for your support. The team and I are\nlooking forward to us working together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For our\neffective operation of the Wellness Centre, we require committed support and\npartnerships from Corporate SA, People in the Private Sector, Faith Based Organisations,\nand other Organisations, Nationally and Internationally, so that Victims feel\nrespected, honoured and physiologically secure. We hope that the purity of our\nintent can be felt and that this message is ministering to your heart. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Through your\nkind support and partnership by means of funding and donations, we will reach\nour full potential in ensuring that every survivor is loved and is receiving\nthe required professional care. Your contribution towards the project will be changing\nthe lives of Victims and Survivors of Human Trafficking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Should\nyou wish to partner \/ sponsor \/ fund \/ volunteer, kindly contact Seema Naidoo\n078&nbsp;906 7461 or email <\/strong><a href=\"mailto:seema@hopetoheal.org.za\"><strong>seema@hopetoheal.org.za<\/strong><\/a><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thank you kindly\nfor your support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Yours in Hope,                                                                                                                                                                                      Seema Naidoo <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Human trafficking is one of the fasted growing organised crimes in the world where freedom is stolen for profit.
