Victory! Sabrina was finally reunited with her mother in Switzerland, where she now lives her life as a child in complete safety.
THANK YOU!
It is with great enthusiasm and emotion that we are able to inform you today of the success of Sabrina's rescue. Thanks to your convictions, thanks to the tenacity and courage of Sabrina and her mother, and thanks to your help, we were able to overcome all the obstacles encountered during these 18 months of hard fighting and to restore justice to this family. Sabrina has arrived in Switzerland, where she will be able to spend the holidays with her mother and thrive in safety. Without you, this would not have been possible. A huge THANK YOU for your precious support, which allows us all to end this year on a high note.
