HOW WE HELP

human trafficking & ABUSE

Mercury One is committed to bringing awareness, education, and help to victims of human trafficking.

According to a recent study published by the Department of Justice, roughly 750,000 American children are reported missing each year. Of that number, unofficial estimates show that 100,000+ are enslaved into the world of human trafficking, forced into prostitution and pornography.

These crimes are all too common and victims come from every segment of our society. Human traffickers often target children between the ages of 12-14 years old for the commercial sex trade. Many victims are runaway girls who were sexually abused as children.

In response, Mercury One partners with organizations to disrupt human trafficking markets right here in the United States and around the world. As a trusted partner, you can help these children who are being bought, sold and discarded by donating to Mercury One.

DISRUPTING GLOBAL HUMAN TRAFFICKING

Mercury One partners with DeliverFund because we believe in their message to disrupt global human trafficking markets by combining unique qualified personnel with a full field traditional and technological approach.

Our Past Human Trafficking Work

Operation Game Changer (OPGC) took place during Super Bowl LI to target human trafficking activity.

Mercury One along with numerous corporate partners supported the efforts of the nonprofit organization DeliverFund on the ground in Houston. The collective efforts resourced Houston law enforcement agents with actionable information leading them to human traffickers and their victims.

The process of hunting down traffickers, making the arrest and freeing their victims does not happen quickly. The results that were compiled during OPGC are being further developed by a DeliverFund analyst and cases continue to be built by law enforcement.

Our partner, Operation Underground Railroad (O.U.R.) has made a significant impact in the fight to end sex trafficking and sexual exploitation by assisting in rescuing and supporting thousands of survivors in 30 countries and 50 U.S. states.

They work to help bring freedom and healing to victims of human trafficking and sexual exploitation, while offering cutting-edge tools and resources to U.S. law enforcement to expand their anti-human trafficking efforts.

DeliverFund is currently working to train police in cities and towns across America to learn the full spectrum of how these operations work.

This leads to more awareness and better preparedness, which ultimately leads to reducing the prevalence of these horrible abuses.

HOW WE HELP

DOMESTIC ABUSE

Mercury One partners with Hope's Door to support victims of domestic abuse.

One of Mercury One’s pillars of service is to serve our community while encouraging others to do the same.

It is from this pillar that we forged a relationship with Hope’s Door New Beginning Center – a North Texas based organization supporting victims of domestic and sexual violence.

WHAT IS DOMESTIC ABUSE?

Domestic abuse is defined as any behavior that attempts to assert power and control over another person, specifically an intimate partner ... this can be physical, emotional, verbal, sexual, or financial.

National statistics show that a staggering 1 in 3 women will experience domestic violence at some point in their lives.

The abuse typically escalates over time and coincides with feelings of fear and shame on the part of the victim, making it difficult for the victim to come forward and seek help.
