ST. LOUIS ( KTVI)   The International Crisis Aid mission is to assist in sustaining life, bring encouragement to those suffering and collaborate with other relief organizations in bringing necessary food, materials and medicines to people in times of  crisis, particularly were life and death situations exist. To accomplish this vision, they continue to target on going efforts in “no-go zones” were other organizations cannot go.

International Crisis Aid (ICA)  is working to end sex trafficking that is sweeping the globe.  It is a worldwide  epidemic that is driven by money and perversion. It is not just a problem in foreign countries, it is also happening in the United States and in Missouri. Hard to believe? The harsh  reality is the United States is among the top countries  in the word for trafficking.

ICA is a nonprofit organization that is fighting this battle head on. ICA has multiple safe homes internationally. Once rescued and taken to a secure home, the girls receive food, shelter, medical care, legal support, counseling and an education.

ICA has rescued dozens of girls, some as young as 4 years old, and given them a second chance at life. ICA invites you to partner with them in helping millions who are without a voice. Your  partnership with ICA will create a “movement” against sex trafficking, a global movement that will  save one precious life at a time.
