Glory's Story

Glory was put up for sale after her mother died. Her father was a poor street laborer in Mumbai, India. He couldn't cope with looking after a baby and took her around asking local brothels to find a buyer. The asking price was an equivalent of about 226 dollars and Glory was just nine months old.

Thankfully the Jubilee Action team heard what was happening and rescued her from a lifetime of sexual slavery just moments before she was sold. She was given a new home at Jubilee's Tickety Boo Tea Homes where she has been ab;e to grow up in a safe and caring environment, with other rescued children. Glory is 8 years old, she attends a local school and always has a smile on her face.
Her story belongs to many children across the world.
1.2 million are being sold into slavery every year, but few have the same happy ending!
