About This Partner

Purpose and Goal

The mission of Hope and Future Albania is to confront the devastating reality of modern-day slavery and human trafficking by providing a pathway from exploitation to restoration. Our primary goal is twofold: prevention and protection. We are dedicated to raising awareness within high-risk communities to stop trafficking before it starts, while simultaneously establishing a dedicated safehouse to offer immediate support, counselling, and a secure environment for survivors. Our heart is for the impoverished and marginalized people of Albania, ensuring that every individual has the opportunity for a life defined by dignity and freedom rather than fear.

Current Challenges

Albania remains a significant source and transit country for human trafficking, leaving many young people and families in impoverished regions vulnerable to exploitation. The primary challenge we face is the lack of specialized infrastructure to support survivors once they are rescued. Without a safe, long-term environment for healing, many remain at risk of being re-trafficked. Additionally, as we prepare to establish our full-time presence on the ground this April, we are navigating the logistical and financial hurdles of securing a permanent facility and building a local network capable of providing comprehensive medical, psychological, and legal aid.

Our Response and How You Can Help

We are meeting these challenges with a "boots on the ground" approach. By transitioning our leadership directly to Tirana, we are positioning ourselves to oversee operations personally and build deep, trusting relationships with the community. We are currently auditing local needs and securing the necessary partnerships to launch our safehouse program.

However, we cannot do this work in isolation. To turn this vision into a reality, we are seeking partners who can provide:

• Monthly Financial Support: To cover the operational costs of our outreach programs and survivor care.

• Capital Funding: Specifically for the establishment and furnishing of a secure safehouse facility.

• Advocacy: To help us amplify our message of prevention across international borders.

Your investment is more than a donation; it is a lifeline that provides a vulnerable person with a future, a hope, and a chance to start again.
