Fe y Esperanza: Our Mission, Our Impact
Our Story: From Poverty Aid to Survivor Support (12 Years of Dedication)
For the past 12 years, Fe y Esperanza’s work has been fueled entirely by the generosity of private donors. As we celebrate our 12th anniversary in 2025, we are taking an important step forward.
Initially focused on helping families facing general poverty, our mission expanded significantly after our founder’s own experience as a survivor of human trafficking.
Today, our priority is clear: Supporting survivors, struggling parents, and individuals overcoming addiction on the path to healing, hope, and new beginnings.
VOLUNTEER: Join Our Mission
We welcome dedicated volunteers and partners to join us. Your involvement creates a positive impact by:
-
Providing essential resources to families and survivors.
-
Promoting mental health and emotional well-being.
-
Spreading crucial awareness locally and beyond.
Fe y Esperanza was created.
Our mission is to bridge that critical gap:
- Spread Awareness: Educate institutions and communities about the realities of human trafficking, the intense trauma victims endure, and the complex nature of recovery.
- Ensure Dignity: Provide essential resources because we understand that recovery isn’t only physical—it’s mental, emotional, and requires dignity and support to truly rebuild a life.
Our Vision
Our vision is a world where every child, senior, and victim of human trafficking is given the care, support, and opportunities they need to thrive. Through the power of community and charitable donations, we aim to provide a brighter future for those in need, ensuring they can live healthy, fulfilling lives free from hardship.
DONATE NOW: Change a Life, Fund Hope
Your financial support provides the foundation for new beginnings.
With as little as $20, you can help cover essential needs like food, hygiene products, counseling, or clothing for survivors of human trafficking, struggling parents, and individuals overcoming addiction.
Be the hope.

Our mission is to bridge that critical gap
Fe y Esperanza
What my family and I have lived through propels our work to advocate for systemic change. I am sharing my story so no one else has to walk that path alone and every victim receives compassion and help—not stigma or shame—from the moment they are rescued. My story is about survival, empowerment, awareness, and the deep belief that healing is absolutely possible.

In 2021, the National Human Trafficking Hotline found that 65% of individuals subjected to human trafficking were recruited online.
%
Nearly all survivors, 98%, experience symptoms of at least one mental health problem (e.g., PTSD, depression) as a result of their exploitation.
An estimated 27.6 million people are trapped in modern slavery worldwide, according to the International Labour Organization (ILO).
