One of the key objectives of the 3 Angels Community Radio (3ACR) is to inform the public and raise awareness on relevant issues, particularly human trafficking. This holds true even when the COVID-19 pandemic struck the country.

During the pandemic crisis, they were able to relay reliable information from the World Health Organization while maintaining most of their regular programming. One of the staff shares, “When the situation began to worsen among the people regarding the shortage of food and essential supplies, we did not know how to be of help to those starving and dying. We are simply not able to help as many as we come to know, however, we are helping as much as possible with our staff committing to sacrifice one meal per day to help some.” The 3ACR team were able to connect people with their local government representative for help. Many local government areas have been able to feed 1 meal a day to those in desperate need. The reach of 3ACR has grown to almost all parts of Nepal, and more and more people are hearing that there is help.

This is also providing the opportunity to spread the word even further about the dangers of trafficking and where to find help if needed. As poverty and desperateness increase significantly, so will human trafficking.
The community radio has never been this busy, but it is all worth it because of the help they are able to provide to people especially during these trying times.
