Born To Be Loved is engaged in funding much needed care and services for girls and boys who have been removed from their homes due to severe abuse. These children need help right now, and we’re here for them.
A second division, the nationwide Violent Abuse Awareness Campaign, was created to raise awareness and educate the public about violent abuse. As awareness becomes more widespread, we believe these incidents of violent abuse, child torture and deaths can level off, then gradually decline. Thus, the Violent Abuse Awareness Campaign becomes a form of preventive rescue—the best kind.
Our goal with this multi-media Campaign, through education, is to inspire the public to become more knowledgeable of, and more involved in, earlier reporting of suspected severe abuse. This earlier intervention restores hope to boys and girls who had lost all hope, and helps to rescue them while there is still time. That means intervening before they are maimed for life, psychologically crippled, or murdered through abuse. Or, in sorrow and desperation, make the decision to end their own lives.
Child abuse is seldom discussed openly or in much detail, and therefore it often takes a back seat to other causes. And since the law rightly requires concealing the identity of abused children for their own protection, you won’t see them in TV commercials.
These girls and boys, sadly, get left far behind in charitable giving dollars partly because their faces cannot be shown. The reason their faces cannot be shown is for their safety from threatening adults, and to uphold their privacy rights. We support those policies, but it leaves us at a disadvantage in fulfilling our mission to help rescue horribly abused children. Their faces, their lives, and their suffering, remain hidden from public view.
Through our Violent Abuse Awareness Campaign, without showing these children’s faces, we hope to change that and bring much needed attention to the growing epidemic of violent child abuse and child torture. General contributions help all aspects of our humanitarian work. Should you wish, however, you can contribute specifically to this Campaign. And if you sponsor print ads, television commercials, or advertising in other media, you or your company may receive public recognition in those media as the sponsor.
The Violent Abuse Awareness Campaign, because of your vision, will help rescue traumatically abused children before it is too late for them. It will even, in some cases, be responsible for saving children’s lives. We are looking for visionaries who recognize the importance of this Campaign and who will step up to join us in moving this Campaign forward. Please get in touch if you would like to discover more about opportunities in this aspect of our humanitarian work. Thank you.
