Our Story
In 1999, the people of Venezuela were happy. A few years earlier they were determined to be the fourth richest economy in the world and the riches economy in South America. The country received many tourist and was a paradise.
People voted in someone who promised lots of free stuff. That promise and hope of Free Stuff would soon cost them their freedom and their way of life. The life of political journalist became dangerous. You would either be jailed or killed.
The economy got worse and worse and people soon lived in poverty. Freedoms were lost and everyone became a slave to the state.
Our story took our founders into exile, spread throughout the globe and fighting for causes of freedom on a global scale.
The youth leadership program realized that it will take a village to protect our freedoms. A village of people throughout the planet working together to bring about the change towards freedom and away from cruel government rule.
Most of our volunteers are poor minorities. Others are high school or college students trying to make a difference while getting job experience.
We will continue our fight against Human Rights Abuses & loss of Freedoms by Government regulations and autocracy.
“The world will not be destroyed by those who do evil, but by those who watch them without doing anything.” ― Albert Einstein
A record 100 million people worldwide have been forced to flee their homes.
The volunteers at Freedom Voice Report's Youth Leadership Program care. Many live in poverty and do not see a way out, yet they give of themselves to help others. They understand they human horrors as they live through it.
Our goal with their help is to bring about change and help others.
But we can not end there, we must help our volunteers achieve a better life.
This program works with their skills and strong points, their degrees from school and has them get job experience on their skill as they do their volunteer. Their abilities is for all the world to see and we hope it has a happy ending for them.
