Year End Goal: $40,000 in 22 days
Supporters and friends of Fly Fishing Collaborative,
We’ll get right to it. It’s the end of another year and we have a goal of raising $40,000 by December 31st. For what? Good question.
In 2020, FFC partnered with an incredible Portland based organization called Safety Compass. We joined with them to provide counseling and support to local sex-trafficking survivors. We were honored to support 12 survivors through our Advocacy Sponsorship Program last year! Practically speaking, that means 12 women will be sitting in very different room this Christmas than they may have been in the year prior. Rooms that are warm and safe as they walk their roads of recovery. This is why we do the work we do.
Then, this year our impact grew as we committed to sponsor 20 more survivors. Real women, in real situations that demand our attention and help. Our goal of raising $40,000 by December 31st is to cover the sponsorships for these 20 survivors. As always, we commit to ongoing updates about how the money given to FFC is used in supporting our initiates and all donations are tax-deductible.
We feel strongly about supporting vulnerable people both locally and internationally because sadly, sex-trafficking and abuse doesn't have borders.
We wouldn't be here without you and our greatest thanks goes to you and your willingness to support this incredible work.
The FFC Staff & Board,
Bucky, Bryan, Nikki, Alyson, Dave, Jenny, Nate, Paul, and Tony
