ONE BODY VILLAGE
For this 2022-2023 school year, we will be supporting a new beneficiary,
“ONE BODY VILLAGE” (OBV)
through our Collective Philanthropy Project (CPP).
This non-profit organization is dedicated to protecting and supporting child survivors of sexual abuse, exploitation, and human trafficking in Vietnam. OBV aims to empower child survivors to continue their life through the healing process to restore their human dignity and self-worth with the use of art therapy.
OBV Vision
“We envision a world free from abuse and exploitation of all forms for every child.”
OBV Mission Statement:
“Our mission is a) to improve the lives of high risk and sexually exploited children by giving them shelter, education, medical care, psychological counseling and vocational training and b) to prevent child sexual exploitation by educating and empowering communities to be catalysts for change.”
