Every 2 minutes a child is sold into trafficking. 4.8 Million people are victims of sexual slavery today. 300,000 American children are victims of commercial sexual exploitation each year. The Average age of entry into the commercial sex market is 12 years old. The average victim is held captive for 23.4 months before escaping, dying, or being set free. In the U.S., 1 in 6 reported endangered runaways are believed to be victims of child sex trafficking. Pimps in America earn up to $200,000 per year per girl. An estimated 30,000 victims of sex trafficking die each year from abuse, disease, torture, and neglect. 1% of victims are ever rescued. There are less than 100 beds for child victims in the United States.


We are equipping everyONE to provide refuge for those running from sex slavery.

Join the Safe House Project Movement. Today there are more people in slavery than any other point in history. Our mission is to work collaboratively to provide more places of hope and freedom to those escaping sex slavery. You are part of providing refuge for survivors. Please sponsor or join a race, donate, spread the word, and help us provide more beds and resources for survivors of modern day sex slavery.
