Hi, I’m Brenna Pitman — a former 3rd grade teacher who will never forget the faces and dreams of my students. I want the digital world they grow up in to be safer than it is today.

That’s why I joined the team at Raven as the Director of Development. Behind Raven is a Board of Directors made up of people who know this fight inside and out: former ICAC commanders who spent their careers tracking predators, prosecutors who fought for justice in court, and psychologists trained to understand how predators behave.

Together, we’ve taken the fight to Capitol Hill and state legislatures to push for long-term, structural solutions that protect kids in this digital era.

By November 20th - World Children's Day - we hope to raise $30,000 to expand our education around online child safety and our state-based advocacy. Your support is critical.

In 2024, there were 29.2 million reports of suspected child sexual exploitation, up from 21.7 million in 2020 (NCMEC, 2024). In the first half of 2025, over 407,577 U.S. IP addresses were caught sharing abuse material (Thorn, 2025). The rise of AI-generated content (IWF, 2023), deepfakes, and sextortion (NCMEC, 2025) is moving faster than investigators can keep up with.

Now, imagine this:

A child opens their laptop, and there are no messages from strangers. Nobody is asking for their age, address, or a photo. They’re just there to learn, laugh, and maybe watch their favorite TV show.

No fear. No exploitation. Just the freedom to be a kid.

That’s the future Raven is working toward. We’re a 501(c)(4) nonprofit dedicated to ending online child exploitation by addressing it at the root — through stronger laws, closing dangerous loopholes, and drafting original legislation. We work upstream so that harm is harder to commit in the first place.

This is prevention at its most powerful. Join us to defend today for brighter tomorrows.
