Our Mission:
Saving & Healing Children Worldwide
Rescuing Trafficked &
Homeless Children
Every child deserves freedom, yet countless children in Uganda fall victim to human trafficking. Helping Hands to Heal the Children works tirelessly to rescue these children from dangerous environments, providing them with safety, medical care, and emotional support as they begin their healing journey.
Building Healing Houses
Recovery from trauma requires more than just rescue—it demands a nurturing space to heal, grow, and rediscover hope. Our Healing House serves as a sanctuary where rescued children receive counseling, education, and the care they need to rebuild their lives with confidence and security.
Providing Therapeutic programs
for children of the Laguna Beach community
Art and music have the power to heal, uplift, and restore joy in a child’s heart. Through choir and art therapy programs in the U.S., we create safe spaces for children to express themselves, process trauma, and build emotional resilience, fostering a sense of belonging and self-worth.
Supporting Global
Anti-Trafficking Efforts
The fight against child trafficking is a collective mission. By collaborating with organizations like Operation Underground Railroad, we strengthen rescue operations, expand resources, and increase awareness—ensuring that more children are saved and protected from exploitation worldwide.
Every child deserves safety, love, and a future. Be the helping hands that lift them up.
Kristi Noël
Meet Our Founder
Kristi Noël's journey of healing began with the profound experience of motherhood. Over the past 12 years, she has dedicated herself to helping hundreds of people heal—mind, body, and soul—through Quantum Energy Healings and Divine Guidance Sessions. As a proud mother of five, her passion for healing took a deeper turn when her second son was suddenly hospitalized for febrile seizures.
While her son was in the pediatric intensive care unit, Kristi had a life changing realization that the helplessness and innocence of children is meant to be protected and preserved. she was meant to dedicate her life to ensuring that all children are healthy, safe, and thriving. This calling led her to focus on one of the most urgent crises affecting children today—human trafficking.
To symbolize this mission, Kristi and her one-year-old daughter painted a watercolor of their hands together, holding a heart—a powerful representation of the love and protection every child deserves. This moment marked the birth of Helping Hands to Heal the Children.
