Invest in the future of survivors.
When you donate to The Survivors Fund, 100% of your donation goes to providing urgent needs or direct case management to our clients, bypassing any administrative costs. This includes critical needs (such as food, shelter, transportation, and trauma counseling), personal safety, and judgment-free support to navigate legal processes, file claims, seek residency, and report abusers – if the survivor chooses to.
The Survivors Fund ensures that victims and survivors of human trafficking find their path to safety and become the champion of their own stories. Invest in the future of survivors by giving them the help they need today.
Whether it’s a one-time donation or a monthly gift, your support will change someone’s life.
Our goals
Urgency
ACT’s Survivors Fund is designed to meet the immediate needs of our clients so that our team can respond as quickly as possible.
Personalized
Every story is different. Individuals who have experienced human trafficking have unique needs based on their own realities and trauma. The Survivors Fund gives ACT the flexibility to listen to each individual client and respond to their needs, whatever they may be.
Transparency
It’s critical that our donors and supporters know exactly where their investment is going. ACT works with a strict gift policy and a professional, third-party auditor to ensure every cent invested in The Survivors Fund serves our clients.
Where your investment goes
The Survivors Fund supports two things: direct client costs, and a percentage of the salaries for our accredited social workers (RSW, BSW) who provide specialized case management for victims and survivors of trafficking.
Examples of approved expenses include:
Gift cards for groceries
Bus passes
Flights/other transportation for clients fleeing or exiting
Urgent shelter in the form of a hotel or rented suite
Deposit for a long-term rental unit
Clothing, if in-kind donations are unavailable
Cost of permits/applications for residency
