IRS990/Desc0Stories was born out of the belief that when people learn about human trafficking and how it affects our communities, they would want to do something to fight against it. We create opportunities to do just that by empowering them to take the first step through education and purposeful purchasing. We bring awareness to community members and training first responders about human trafficking and what we can do. Stories Foundation uses business to create opportunities for survivors and those vulnerable. Stories also held events during the year to further the message.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0The Love, Sophia Project is Stories Foundation's outreach and prevention program that covers emotional vulnerabilities in 14-24 year olds by providing education about healthy relationships and safe community. We engaged volunteers to help pack 300 outreach bags and distribute them to the community in 2023, and all of what we do is geared towards preventing human trafficking. We also served 12 survivors in 2023 through wrap around services.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0Storyteller Cafe - We bought land in 2021 and we have continued to fundraise the money needed to build a giveback cafe where we will sell food products and boutique items as well as host awareness events with the goal of spreading awareness about human trafficking, empowering people to make a difference through purposeful purchasing as a first step, and create opportunities for survivors and those vulnerable through jobs and housing. The project is still in process as of the end of 2023.
