Restore International

Love Does has been working in Uganda since 2006, primarily to promote human rights and education. They started by asking Ugandans what the biggest need was at the time. Their answer was human rights and education, so Love Does got busy trying to be helpful in those areas. The educational aspect is not the only need addressed as Love Does has a safe house in Kampala,Uganda that has over 25+ girls living there. Love Does also holds weekly classes for more than 70 traditional healers to teach them basic literacy and anti human trafficking. Lastly, Love Does supports a program that sends 35 graduates of Restore Leadership Academy on to University.

In 2007, Love Does started a secondary school in Gulu, Uganda. Many of the students were previous child soldiers, rescued from lives of forced sex trafficking, orphans, or from backgrounds of extreme poverty. From a tiny beginning, the school thrived on the vision to give these kids hope, a home and a fighting chance at success. As of 2017, there are 500+ students and 30 staff members in primary, middle and high school and Restore Leadership Academy is one of the top schools in Northern Uganda for its academic performance and sports teams. Soon after opening, Love Does added more grade levels so that the levels spanned from Senior One to Senior Six, which is the U.S. equivalent of junior high and high school. They added dorms so that the children could live at the school and they also introduced a program of family cells, so that the students could thrive in a safe, caring and family-like environment with assigned mentors. They kept the cost of tuition to less than half of the normal rate, and put many students on scholarship so that they could continue to attend. In 2011, they were able to build a school campus on land that they had purchased for their students. A couple of years later, in March 2013, they opened a primary school in order to provide more opportunities for education at all ages. In the summer of 2017, they began building a new primary school campus across the street from Restore Leadership Academy, so that the primary school can continue to grow! Also in 2017, they wired the school buildings with electricity so the campus always has power! In addition to academics, they have focused on a holistic approach to student development by providing extracurricular actives and community building programs such a sport teams, boy and girl scouts, group studies, and music programs.

India Restore International

Throughout the world, 29 million people each year are enslaved.[12] That is the highest number in the history of the world. India has been noted to have more than half of the world slave population.[13] Love Does has been working in India since 2002 to investigate and perform surveillance to find children being enslaved in brothels or other forms of bonded labor. They work with police to do raids, rescue the children, and arrest the traffickers. The children are then taken to homes to be cared for and hopefully returned home to their families, depending on their situation. The perpetrators are prosecuted and hopefully prevented from enslaving more children.

Somalia is a country torn by war and struggling to recover from years of famine, war, unrest, and violence.[14] Unfortunately, the biggest victims are the women and children. It's estimated there are over a million displaced people in the country right now, and the vast majority of these people struggle to meet the basic needs of survival, let alone to pursue education and livelihoods. Love Does is working on improving educational opportunities for the youth, and safety and care for women and children. The Mogadishu Safe House was opened in September 2014 for women and children who had been victims of gender based violence. The home is a place for them to come for safety, medical attention, counseling and therapy, and then job training skills to help build their lives back.

Love Does has been working in Iraq since the summer of 2014, when ISIS took control of vast areas of Northern Iraq and displaced almost a million people. During this time they have zeroed in on the refugee crisis, providing emergency supplies and aid, and then focusing their efforts on a school for refugee children. The Love Does School is now home to almost 300 refugees. The school is made up of Yazidi kids from Sinjar Mountain, Shabak kids from Mosul, and Arab kids from the Anbar province. All of their students are able to attend classes 5 days a week, and they bus all children living in IDP camps to the school. The Love Does Village is in progress and will consist of 20 homes for Syrian Refugee families. These families have been living in makeshift homes made up of tarps and shells of buildings. Love Does knows how important it is to have a safe place to live and grow families, and they are honored to be able to build them these homes. In the fall of 2017, they will begin building the Love Does Hospital to serve the refugee community. The hospital will be located within walking distance of the village and the school, and will be able to provide services to hundreds of refugees.

Love Does wanted to open a home for young, orphaned girls to experience what it's like to be welcomed into a family and loved like one as well. In September 2014, they opened the Love Does Nepal Orphanage, which is now home to six incredible little girls. The girls are cared for by an amazing couple who live in the home. The girls all attend a private school nearby the home, so that they can receive an excellent education. In 2015 Love Does went on relief trips to Nepal after the earthquake that struck in April. After seeing the need there, they decided to open an after school program for kids whose homes were destroyed by the earthquake. It's called the Love Does School and they have more than 40 amazing kids attending. They come to the center after they get out of school and get a meal, tutoring, help with homework, and a safe place to spend time.
