My Appeal
I know that when it comes to injustice as complex as the exploitation of women, it can be overwhelming knowing how to help. That’s why I’m excited to join the Elevate Freedom campaign benefiting Not Abandoned-- I get to actually make a difference in the lives of women and children being exploited, and I get to do it all while also challenging myself to be healthier!
I will be logging my miles completed through walks, runs, and hikes (for bonus points!) and I am asking that you join me as a sponsor in this campaign. Every step I take is an act of allyship and support to the women and children Not Abandoned works with through the passionate and strategic Freedom Centers. These girls deserve to have a chance at freedom. They deserve our support. The road to freedom and empowerment can be long, but she doesn’t have to walk it alone!
This year our goal is to raise $25,000 for Not Abandoned’s expansion of their Freedom Center in Pattaya, Thailand. Every dollar raised will go directly towards the equipping of this newly renovated day center that provides a safe place for women recovering from exploitation. Here they plug into a healthy family of support with trauma care and employment opportunities that provide stability, empowerment, and freedom.
(More on this project here.)
It takes a community to sustain freedom. I’d like to invite you to help make a difference through supporting me, and my steps forward, in this Elevate Freedom campaign. Would you consider donating $25 or more towards this goal? Because of the hope created through these efforts with Not Abandoned, your generosity is literally changing the destiny of a woman’s, life one step at a time! Thank you for being a part of my support community and for helping to ELEVATE FREEDOM!

My Cause
The Mission: Not Abandoned empowers freedom for women and children exploited and vulnerable in the darkest places around the world.
About the Organization:
When it comes to injustice as complex as the exploitation of women, it can be overwhelming knowing how to help. You deserve to be confident that your donations and efforts to the cause are actually making a difference in the lives of those most desperate for help. Without a clear path to freedom, exploited women endure constant sexual and financial abuse, lack of access to non-exploitative work, forced separation from those they love and an undeserving but unrelenting cycle of shame.
Not Abandoned recognizes this hopelessness experienced by women trapped in exploitation and has been able to help over 5,000 women experience hope and freedom through services provided at our Freedom Centers. These strategic international centers are in some of the darkest places around the world: Pattaya, Thailand, a city known as the Sex Tourism Capital of the World; Korat, Thailand, one of the most targeted hotspots for trafficking young Thai women; and Algeciras, Spain, the largest port city for trafficking family members between Africa & Europe.
At our Freedom Centers, we work directly with exploited women and vulnerable communities providing language classes, job skills training and employment placement, trauma-informed, counseling, emergency resources, health & wellness programs, supportive community, and prevention programs. Our program offerings work together to help remove barriers to freedom and empower women with self-confidence, restorative hope, and practical support to live free.
We invite you to help make a difference through Elevate Freedom today and have confidence that because of the hope created through Not Abandoned, your generosity is changing the destiny of a woman’s life.
