Beauty from
ashes
Andrew Colquhoun | Co-Founder & CEO of Captivating
Welcome to our very first edition of BEAUTY FROM ASHES - an update about the work of Captivating in Nepal. Every six months (Feb and Aug) we will give you, our amazing supporters, an overview of the work in Nepal that [together] we have made possible. In the past we have focused our updates on a project by project basis, however, feedback has suggested that having a combined Nepal wide picture of how everything fits together would be beneficial. We agree. So, here we go. Firstly, I want to start with some thank-yous. We would not be doing this work if not for amazing partnerships. On the ground doing all the hard work on a day to day basis are our in-country partners. 3 Angels Nepal, and Tiny Hands Nepal/Love Justice. Captivating underwrites the entire anti-human trafficking interception, rehabilitation and prevention programs of 3 Angels Nepal, funding 80% of everything their amazing team of dedicated professionals do day-in and day-out. As you will read, their impact is incredible and life-changing. Captivating also funds the operation of 5 monitoring stations operated by Tiny Hands Nepal/Love Justice, another professional team focused not just on the interception of women believed to be in the process of being trafficked, but also the aggressive pursuit and prosecution of traffickers. Surrounding all of this is our partnership with the amazing team at Global Development Group - a group of professionals whose expertise lies in program governance and compliance with international development guidelines. Amongst other things, they ensure Captivating can provide tax-deductible donation receipts to donors from Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong and the USA.
