When Compassion First (CF) secured Sarah’s House, its new, larger aftercare facility late last year, our team never could have anticipated its provision in crisis.
In January, our long-time facility Ruth’s House flooded along with many areas in Indonesia’s North Sulawesi region. As a result, CF staff and residents moved into Sarah’s House months ahead of schedule. Operations continue as best they can, and we continue to deliver specialized care for each resident.
Although we do have this facility, the home is far from ready. We want to provide the best aftercare environment as soon as possible.
To do this, we need your help.
CF is currently looking for semi-skilled and skilled craftsmen who can volunteer their time and talents to renovate Sarah’s House. While anyone willing to go is welcome, we especially need people skilled in:
- Electrical
- Plumbing
- Removing + Constructing Walls
- Ceiling Repair
- Landscaping
- Drilling for + Repairing Wells
If you possess any of these skills, we ask you to make Sarah’s House a priority. Over the next few months, we hope to deploy church teams of four to five people for stays of up to seven days (11 days, including travel). All team members will need to submit an engagement team application, and—for the security of our work—undergo a background and reference check.
Interested? Contact CF’s Bickey Lloyd at blloyd@compassionfirst.org, and ask for more information. Thank you for your partnership as we care for young trafficking survivors every day.
