The Apple of God’s Eyes works with girls who are victims of human trafficking for sexual exploitation, but it also benefits girls and boys at risk, as orphans, those living in extreme poverty, on the margins, living on the streets or at risk of being trafficked. All the people shown on our site have authorized the use of their images, but to protect the privacy of each one of them we do not relate them to their past or present context. You should also avoid attributing to them the constraints that they may or may not have faced, that is, not all of them came from human trafficking and we do not reveal those that came and those that did not come from this situation.

7 - About Donations
The Apple of God’s Eyes suggests three monthly donation amounts based on the costs of a school scholarship to prevent human trafficking, a student at our school and the total expenses of the needs of a child or young person living in one of our homes. The suggested values may be changed at any time due to market variations or exchange variations between the currencies of the donor’s country and Nepal. This will not affect recurring donations set up prior to the modification. If necessary, we will contact the recurring donors to inform the change in the amounts and, if necessary, request changes in future donations, which may be refused by the donors.
The recurring donation can be closed at any time by the donor through the account that will be created and sent to their registration email in the donation form. Another way to edit the recurring donation is to request modifications using the Contact page.
The Apple of God’s Eyes does not undertake to increase the number of scholarships awarded, students at our school or children and youth in our homes for each recurring donation made through our website. Every month, we complete the budget for each of these programs through our general fund. Donations made to these programs will make the general fund’s demand less. As recurring donations increase, we will identify the need to readjust these programs and thus benefit more people.
