Testimonies
"I enjoyed my trip with Destiny Rescue immensely. It is impossible not to go away without being challenged and confronted by the concept and reality of life, how incredibly precious, valuable and fragile it really is, how unbelievably blessed and rich we are and how we can act and contribute to positive change in a child’s life. Take that step and see first-hand the vital life-changing impact the team at Destiny Rescue is making and how you can be involved!"
Tim Pearce
"The first day that we visited the Chiang Rai Orphanage, was truly a day I knew in my heart that my life had changed and that seeing firsthand what Destiny Rescue was doing for these helpless little children was coming from a position of real love and compassion. Seeing is believing so becoming involved on a personal level offered me an insight into the needs, wants and aspirations of the Thai and hill tribe children, also a great insight into myself."
