What do you need?” …“Jobs. Stability. A real chance.”
20 years ago, I walked into a strip club not knowing that moment would change everything. I met women targeted for trafficking—women who deserved more than a one-time outreach. So I asked them what they needed. Their answer was clear.
And we’ve been building Lovely Village ever since.
Right now, we’ve been given a $30,000 matching gift challenge.
That means every dollar you give by August 15 will be doubled—up to $30,000.
$50 becomes $100
$250 becomes $500
Every gift helps create long-term support for survivors and their kids
Your gift will go twice as far to:
Furnish the Lovely Village Residences
Fund case management to walk with survivors every step of the way
Provide living wage jobs in our residential program
Sustain our weekly support group, Space for Love
This is a historic moment.
Lovely Village is changing the literal landscape of Waco—and you’re part of it. If we hit our $30K match, we unlock $60,000 to keep building hope and healing.
