For survivors of human trafficking, rescue is only the first step.
It can take 12 months or longer in a long term recovery shelter of emotional and psychological healing, re-learning life skills, and feeling safe. Then and only then can survivors even begin to think about life after recovery within a shelter.
Survivors often enter shelters with only the cloths on their backs, leaving their possessions, if any, behind. Shelters provide clean cloths for their day to day lives within the shelter.
But what about when survivors are ready to leave and face the world?
How do they present themselves for job interviews without a job to buy the right cloths?
How do they face the world with confidence dressed for success?
That's where Fashion Hope steps in.
HOPE TO SURVIVORS WITH FASHION
We deliver fashion to give hope and confidence to survivors of human trafficking.
By collecting and donating new or gently used, high quality, current fashion clothing and accessories, we address the very important and often overlooked need of owning clothing that empowers confidence to face job interviews and their new life outside of captivity.
HOPE TO SUSTAINABILITY IN FASHION
Our mission to dress survivors for success also contributes to our mission to prolong the life of fashion goods and reduce textile waste through the donations of clothing goods and upcycling of unwearable donations."
