our story

In 2010, Freely in Hope’s story began by providing academic scholarships because we knew that access to education was one of the most powerful opportunities to help survivors achieve their dreams. But soon after, we realized that healing the aftereffects of trauma required a holistic approach. Beyond high school and university scholarships, we needed to provide Holistic Education through counseling, safe housing, health care, mentorship, and a community of belonging for survivors to grow, heal, and thrive together. As survivors began to heal from trauma, their dreams expanded with a common desire to build a world without sexual abuse. They wanted to be part of the mission as leaders, innovators, and speakers. Guided by the vision of survivors, we launched Leadership Development Programs to equip survivors to be transformational, influential, and collaborative leaders in their communities. As their leadership grew, we also grew by learning from their inspiring solutions for building a violence-free world. 

your stance with Freely in Hope shows survivors that they are not alone, that healing is possible, and that we can build a safer world together. Thank you for investing in the dreams of survivors through Freely in Hope.
