hess This is wonderful work thank you fot every thing which you are doing for all those girls, this should never in the first place be happening!!! last year
Mahalo for bringing to light the horrible circumstances of these young girls and for letting us know of the hope that the Rescue Foundation provides. This film educates us all and should prompt everyone who sees it to support such organizations as the Rescue Foundation. Mahalo nui loa to both Explore and the Rescue Foundation for this important piece of work. 3 years ago
I sat and wept after seeing your film. These young girls face such unimaginable abuse and degradation. One can see the pain and shame in their faces ... I applaud you and your team for creating this very revealing piece, and The Rescue Foundation for the wonderful work they are doing. It was especially heartening to see that they are actually arranging marriages for these girls ...wow! Talk about "Total Rehabilitation." We are a non-profit run by Leadership Teenagers. These girls are all in their teens. Perhaps we can also figure out a way to be of some help to them. Keep up the great work! 3 years ago
I'm surprised that it takes so long to prosecute these cases. Their smiles at the end of the film speaks for this program! Congratulations and thank you for spreading awareness. 3 years ago
I applaud you on this excellent film and making us aware of the the heroic deeds of the Rescue Foundation. 3 years ago
Best wishes to all of the Explore team for continued success! The Mumbai piece highlighting the work of the Rescue Foundation is both provocative and enlightening. We're interested in learning more about supporting featured organizations like this. 3 years ago
The girls in the video were precious. I appreciate the close and inobtrusive shots of the girls. I was able to see their pain, shame and hurt in their eyes. But, they could smile and take action, like one of the girls who went to court to testify. I got the unselfishness of the girls and one who said she wants the man who stole her to get caught so that "other girls" would not be hurt. Amazing show of strength while recovering from the horrors they faced and will live with the rest of their lives. I applaud the work of the brave and kind people who rescue these girls from dead-end lives. This film is a heartfelt testament to men and women' never-ending humanity to free these girls. Congratulations for sharing this story--hope springs eternal. I felt, at times, that the music was too loud and distracting. I would have preferred background music. Thank you. GG 3 years ago

Good work, Charley. The human animal has more curious and exploitive behaviors than any other creature. Saving people from such exploitation is very noble of you. I am sure the whale spirits will applaud any progress you make toward public enlightenment. 3 years ago
It would be nice to know who made these videos - I assume they didn't materialize out of thin air. Writers, Producers, Directors, Editors? 3 years ago
Charlie & Co.- This film was outstanding! You managed to candidly expose an enormously sensitive issue of the darker side of human existence, while maintaining the positive outlook experienced by the young women who were rescued. Everyone should see this film. Thank you for your important work. 3 years ago
Charley, You are doing tremendous work in India with this problem of trafficing girls into prostitution and providing them with a way out. I want to put you in touch with Peter and Jennifer Buffett who have a 1 Billion dollar fund given to them by Warren Buffett to focus on these type of problems for women around the world. Contact me at lauraromeo@theabdl.com and we will connect the two of you. Laura Romeo 3 years ago
