Blue Dragon has reached the milestone of 1,000 rescues of people from slavery. But the early days of our anti-trafficking work did not have such a promising start…

It took more than a decade to end child trafficking into sweatshops from central Vietnam. Suddenly, families are once again at risk.

His childhood broken, Tung faced abuse and homelessness… until the day he made the decision that changed his life.
