Pure Hope Foundation

In 2023, Pure Hope Foundation served dozens of survivors of trafficking through the provision of resources, counseling, placement into care facilities, etc. The team also housed and facilitated 6 survivors through immersive, long-term restorative care within Hope home and transitional living facilities. The organization began construction on the 2nd Hope home at Pure Hope ranch to extend the access to this program to other survivors. Assistance was provided to survivors in gaining education and training to enable them to be successful and thrive in every day life. Assistance included helped survivors receive career training in the fields of nursing, welding and dentistry. The organization celebrated numerous healthcare wins for survivors needing medical, dental, and emotional care due to trauma and abuse. Promising the ability to increase programs involving equine therapy, the organization celebrated certification in therapeutic equine coaching by 3 staff members and 1 survivor.

The organization operates a retreat center that is open to corporate and other types of events. While the operation of the retreat center is considered an unrelated trade or business, its operation enables the organization to create training programs to teach valuable life skills to survivors in its other programs and to work in a safe environment earning funds for the future. In 2023, the organization hosted 40 events at the retreat center where survivors work and train while learning critical career/life skills like hospitality, food service, event hosting, cleaning, garden preparation and more.
