A Fundraiser for Freedom Supporting Survivors of Sex Trafficking
Join us for an unforgettable night filled with stories of hope, inspired community, and the voices of the leaders and survivors who fight for freedom every day.
The state of Florida ranks third in the nation for the highest rates of human trafficking, but we believe that our city can be different. Your generosity builds a community where women are welcomed into home, hope, and healing.
Samaritan Village's 2nd annual Road to Freedom gala takes a stand against exploitation in our community and celebrates how the Village has and continues to grow - now including three safe homes where women experience healing in body, mind, and soul.
Registration opens July 7th!
