The document summarizes the work of Woodland Christian Trust, a UK charity, and its partnership with AGMI in Pakistan to rescue Christian children from slavery. It describes several cases where young Christian girls were raped and abused while working as house servants for Muslim families in Pakistan, but their abusers faced no legal consequences. The Trust aims to build a rescue center and school to provide refuge and education for around 150 at-risk Christian girls and help combat the problems of slavery, lack of education and employment opportunities faced by Pakistan's Christian population.
