Pluspunten

I have freelanced for over 40 NGOs and cannot believe the opportunities I have to use all of my skills plus create innovation, to result in opportunities to rescue even more girls. The response is immediate. A donor's commitment enables girls to be rescued, educated, have urgent medical treatment. I love taking people on the journey of a girl from rescue to recovery to education, and feeling with each rescue across the seven countries, I've played a tiny part. Communication is open, we confront issues head on, and we're not afraid to try new objectives. I really appreciate how we value the donor dollar, and reporting back to our donors about what they have helped to collectively achieve for the children. I have the freedom to work from home as the office is in Qld but I've learnt so much technology because Destiny Rescue readily adopts new platforms and tech to help us. Each team member is encouraged to contribute to change, identify problems and feed in solutions. I'm not part of a huge organisation - I can ring any team member at any time and get their feedback or share their ideas. If you want to create immediate change and lasting impact, this is the place to work.

Minpunten

I still haven't been able to visit the projects on the ground in our project nations but that's a first world problem. Working in different parts of Australia can be difficult for team members but that's what zoom and Microsoft Teams and Blink and the jolly phone were invented for!

The international staff that is employed by this organization is fabulous. They give 100% to the organization and the children they are helping.

Minpunten

This organization has great intentions for the rescue and restoration of exploited children. But my hang ups are, why have Western volunteers go to the project nations and be the leaders of the projects? Western volunteers don’t know the culture, the language, the workings of the government, the family dynamics, etc… Having locals lead the projects under the guidance, direction, and teaching of Western volunteers would not only empower locals, but run more efficient project nations. Their is a huge disconnect is when individuals volunteer their time to serve overseas (leaving their jobs, homes, families, friends and much more) and raise their own financial support and are not supported, nor heard, by the paid staff (who sit comfortably in their home countries with their families, friends and modern day amenities). What the volunteers “on the ground” are experiencing and dealing with, is a far cry from what the paid staff in the funding nations will ever understand. To live day in and day out “fighting the good fight”, only to be given directions from staff who have never lived in a country you are serving or dealt with the culture on a daily/monthly basis is very challenging. The international staff just doesn’t understand what volunteers go through, yet wants to call the shots from afar. This creates challenges for volunteers, staff, the children and for families. This organization is very divided. Upper management is very bullheaded and are power houses. It’s very tense for volunteers and for project staff to understand this mentality. It’s not the culture that the are used to and it creates a lot of unsettling situations.

Reactie van Destiny Rescue

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We have an incredible group of passionate people, our supporters and the direct team, who continue to blow us away with their commitment to the cause. Since you left the organisation, you will be encouraged to hear that we have employed many more ‘national’ staff in each country we work in. In fact, in Nepal, all of our rescue agents are Nepalese women, many of whom were trafficked themself in the past and are now advocating for the freedom of others. Almost all our new projects are run by ‘national leaders’ from that country and not by ‘foreign people coming in to run the programs. Location during the COVID pandemic became a moving target that required many of our staff and volunteers to move back to their home countries or to work remotely. This was beyond our control and was the same for many organisations that were no longer able to be “on the ground” to continue their work. We learned during this time to help in new ways that stretched many traditional notions of how we can be effective. We appreciate your feedback and advice, but the comments don’t reflect how we currently work. We also don’t have “Intern” roles in our organisation, making it difficult for us to evaluate the accuracy of your comments. The review also mentions volunteering, which confuses the review because the identified role is “Intern”. I would invite you to reach out personally to us at Destiny Rescue. We have a clear complaints process on our website and are open to learning how we can better support our people. Kind Regards Chris Gribble (International HR Director)
