Paula White Ministries is proud to support Zoe International Ministries, and its mission to reach and influence the “un-reached people of the world.” Founded by Pastors Michael and Carol Hart, whose dream it has been to “rescue hurting children and build orphanages around the world” for over two decades, Zoe International Ministries reaches out to people with little access to the gospel message, while working to fight the escalating crisis of human trafficking and child prostitution worldwide.

While Thailand’s rate of child prostitution has been the focus of international scrutiny over the years, the vision of Zoe children’s homes and orphanages is to alleviate the suffering of the millions of children forced into child prostitution around the world.  The crisis of child prostitution becomes obvious when considering the research:

• It is estimated that up to 1,200,000 children per year are brought into the child prostitution and human slavery industries worldwide.

• It is estimated that 17,500 women and children per year are imported for this heinous work in the United States alone.  

• Human trafficking is such a lucrative industry that U.S. intelligence estimates it will surpass the illicit guns and narcotics trading industry within the decade.
