Hey Friends! I’ve recently started volunteering for a company called Monarch Jewelry in St. Louis, Missouri. We repurpose old jewelry, craft just about anything and everything to sell & raise funds for Crisis Aid.

Crisis Aid has been saving lives since 2002. They’re a credible non-profit organization that has been serving in 13 different countries in the fight against sex trafficking and child exploitation. Crisis Aid now concentrates its efforts in East Africa and the United States.

This fundraiser will be directly benefiting the United States portion of Crisis Aid and the House of Hope.

The Crisis Aid House of Hope Refuge Home is a direct response to the need for residential services. The HOH Home, built on faith-based principles, offers services ranging from emergency assistance to transitional living. This 20,000 square foot home is a beautiful, state-of-the-art facility that provides a warm, healing environment for up to 20 trafficked girls and young women.

Last week I found out the home only has 6 girls at the moment and it’s solely based on not having the funds. Just like everything, we need money to provide a safe landing for more girls!

If you’ve been following my story, you know that I was sexually abused 2 decades ago, stayed silent until my abuser was caught again with another child. At that point, I refused to do nothing; I gathered my bearings and went to the police!

Justice was served in February 2025.

I’m slowly starting to put that part of my life behind me, but my story doesn’t stop there… I’ve promised myself I’m turning my pain into purpose and I will do everything in my power to help where I can! Will you help me too? Every dollar counts! If you cannot financially contribute… will you pray for the victims that haven’t found their way out yet?

Thank you so much for loving and supporting me on my mission!
