An Evening with Humanity

Join us and CNN Hero Anuradha Koirala on SEPT 29th and help rescue 15 girls from the brothels of India and free them from a life of slavery.

  • Aura Freedom is honoured to be working with Anuradha. We have been following Maiti Nepal for many years. This past March, we visited them ourselves and met survivors of trafficking and slavery who were rescued by Maiti Nepal. Some girls were sold as young as 5 years old and forced to take clients as young as 7. We heard their stories and vowed to never forget them and to help Maiti Nepal in any way possible. Here is our chance. Here is YOUR chance to RESCUE MORE.
  • Marissa is shown by a 7 year old how to carry a baby basket around her head...Nepali style.
  • Is this how you do it?
  • Aura Freedom founder Marissa chats with survivors while clowning at Maiti Nepal.
  • Co-founder Marco entertaining the girls at Maiti Nepal.
  • One of our priceless shots. Help us protect them.
  • This is how young they are sold...help keep her home and help rescue others who weren't as fortunate.
  • We have big plans for her...and being trafficked isn't one of them.
  • Marissa giggles with the Gatlang gang in northern Nepal.
  • Clowning around and laughing with the girls in the Himalayas.
  • The girls watch on as the clowns put on a show in Gatlang-northern Nepal.
  • A big smile for the camera in the beautiful Langtang region of Nepal.
  • For many rural Nepali girls, the risk of being trafficked into India is a frightening reality. Some are sold as young as 5 years old. Once they reach their destination, they are enslaved for profit. As Anuradha Koirala said: "Take each girl as your own, soon you will feel her sorrow." Help us protect them.
