How hunger impacts human trafficking

Traffickers prey on vulnerability. Food opens a way out.

Food is urgently needed in places where hunger creates even deeper danger — including Haiti, where women and girls are at greater risk of trafficking.

Human trafficking is modern-day slavery. And traffickers do not always begin with force. They often begin with promises: food, work, shelter, safety.

For someone who is hungry and afraid, those promises can sound like the only way forward.

That’s why FMSC food matters so deeply.

Food was a way out for a human trafficking survivor

In Haiti, this became painfully real. A woman in a brothel received a MannaPack® meal.

As she ate, she began to share her story. She was listened to. Called by name. Treated with dignity.

That meal met an urgent need — and opened a door to care, safety and a step away from exploitation.

Your support can send food as a lifeline — before traffickers can use hunger as a trap.

Around the world, hunger makes children and families easier to exploit. FMSC meals help trusted partners meet the urgent need first — with food, care and the hope of Christ.

Your gift can reach places where hope feels far away.
