About

Founded in 2001, Destiny Rescue is a non-governmental organisation based in Fort Wayne, United States working on human rights, children & youth, justice & legal aid.

Destiny Rescue is a global Christian non-governmental organisation that rescues children from sexual exploitation and human trafficking and helps them stay free. It runs rescue operations and reintegration programmes in five global regions across Africa, Asia and Latin America, and raises funds and awareness from support offices in the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand. Its work includes responding to online exploitation of children, building partnerships with law enforcement and other organisations, and equipping churches and the public to take part in rescue. Its stated approach is faith-based, and it describes its model as a Good Samaritan model of meeting immediate needs, providing safe care and supporting long-term healing. Destiny Rescue was founded by Tony Kirwan and has operated since 2001.
