How You Can Help Survivors of Human Trafficking

In addition to supporting survivors by buying their products, we need donations to run our programs. This holiday season, all donations will be double matched by our foundation partner Humanity United, so if you donate $100, we will get a total of $300 for our anti-slavery programs

You can Triple the Impact of your charitable donation when you support our programs. 

Every dollar donated to this campaign will go directly to programs for survivors, helping women and children get free and remain free from slavery with education and empowerment programs.

Not only will all your donations go to programs (our overhead is funded separately) but we are committed to stretching every dollar of impact from your donations.  We keep our staff small, don't waste money on anything fancy, recycle every box, and keep overhead costs and salaries to an absolute minimum. We are committed to using every penny to preventing slavery and helping survivors.

 Our Three Funding Priorities:

Survivor Training and Employment.  Support or training and jobs programs, especially our jewelry program that provides tools, six months of metalsmith training and full employment in a high value profession for the survivors.  You can follow the development of this program and hear from the trainers and the survivors in our blog From Dust To Dazzle.

Brick By Brick Campaign.  In partnership with Rescue Foundation, Mumbai, the host shelter for our newest jewelry program in India, we are building a new facility to house our jobs programs as well as a school for 75 survivors.  We need $15,000 to complete this building which over its life will help many of thousands of survivors rebuild their lives

Gift Of Education.  If you choose to sponsor a childs education for a year, that donation will also be eligible for the Triple Your Impact  match.  School sponsorship costs $360 a year and you can learn more about it here.  We have about 25 kids needing sponsors, and education is a guaranteed path out of slavery and exploitation.

How to Made a Tax Deductible Donation:

 You can earmark your donations for one of our three priority programs, or make a general donation to all our programs.  We are a 501 (c) 3 charity, and donations are exempt from US taxes.  If you dont want the tax deduction, you can ask to keep your donation anonymous if you like, but you can rest assured we never share or disclose donor information.
