About EVENforONE

We envision a world where safe pathways exist for survivors of human trafficking to reclaim their agency and freedom in their journey toward restoration.

Our mission is to unite the counter trafficking movement and remove barriers to restoration for survivors of human trafficking, ensuring rapid and safe access to aftercare resources through innovative technology, education and advocacy.

We value Life | Freedom | Safety | Integrity | Transparency | Unity | Innovation

“Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute. Speak up and judge fairly; defend the rights of the poor and needy."
Proverbs 31:8-92

Helping overcomers through Technology

We recognize the need for technological innovation within the counter trafficking movement, particularly in the referral space. We plan to provide a safe, fast, and easy-to-use platform for overcomers and service providers to access current and reliable information about organizations allied in the fight to help.
 

Helping overcomers through Education

“Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.”
- Nelson Mandela

Education is key to harm prevention. Through education initiatives designed for law enforcement, safe homes, and the church, we aim to see trafficking prevented and safety and security established for those that have already experienced trafficking.

Helping overcomers through Advocacy

The challenges overcomers face when seeking aftercare are often exacerbated by the effects of trauma on the brain. That's why we believe advocacy is a crucial component and a missing link in the referral process. We aim to provide trained advocates who support overcomers in navigating the often difficult process of pursuing care.

Advocacy goes beyond that though; it's about elevating overcomer voices in all we say and do, from internal policies and procedures to external conversations, ensuring their perspectives and needs are always front and center. It's not merely technology that needs to be upgraded, but also human interaction and impact.

Helping the many, by starting
with ONE

EVENforONE advocates for the infinite value of every single individual life affected by sex trafficking. It's easy for us to get desensitized by faceless stats or overwhelmed by the magnitude of a humanitarian crisis like trafficking in all its forms.

EVENforONE isn't just about trying to solve a “problem” or fix a massive societal failure. We can’t forget that behind this “issue” are millions of ONES who need intervention and support. Our name reflects this belief, reminding us that transforming even one life makes this whole project worthwhile and ultimately impacts MANY.

What's in a name?

In contrast to Shakespeare's belief that names hold less importance than identity, EVENforONE intentionally infuses meaning and transparency into ever aspect of our work, including our logo and name.

Our Name: Inspired by the parable of the good shepherd in the Biblical book of Matthew, our heart is to help one at a time, walking as the shepherd who sought out the single sheep lost and in danger. By supporting one, we create a ripple effect that extends beyond us, as those we help often go on to help others.

Our Logo:
Our logo is based on the Paleo Hebrew letter "Aleph," which is the first (or ONE) letter of the Hebrew alphabet. It symbolizes strength, freedom, unity, new beginnings, and leadership. Overcomers of trafficking possess inherent strength, freedom, and the potential for new beginnings. Their capable voices have the most weight and authority to counter trafficking, and they should be empowered as leaders. Unity in counter-trafficking efforts is essential to truly create lasting change.

Our Colors: Our chosen colors represent how we see the true identity of the amazing humans overcoming trafficking and exploitation.

Purple/Blue: Purple and blue, once reserved for royalty due to their status as the most rare dyes, symbolize the true and deep identity of those we serve, affirming their worth and status as children of the Creator King. No matter how broken or rejected they may feel, they are still created for incredible purpose and meaning.

White: White represents the purity that was stolen from overcomers during their trafficking experiences, but also the confidence that healing is possible. Restoration to original design is our heart's cry for every single ONE that has experienced exploitation.

“See that you do not despise one of these little ones. For I tell you that in heaven their angels always see the face of my Father who is in heaven. What do you think? If a man has a hundred sheep, and one of them wanders, does he not leave the ninety-nine on the mountains and go in search of the one that wandered? And if he finds it, truly, I say to you, he rejoices over it more than over the ninety-nine that never wandered. So it is not the will of my Father who is in heaven that one of these little ones should perish."
Matthew 18:10-14
