NOTE FROM THE FOUNDER

MORE THAN A SAFE PLACE

Dear Friends,

As we reflect on the many accomplishments of Wellspring Living in partnership with you and the community of freedom fighters, we are overwhelmed with gratitude. There are many complexities in providing services to help domestic sex trafficking victims, and those at risk, develop the courage to move forward and the confidence to succeed. Without your engagement, our efforts would not be as effective. Your investment, encouragement, and service enrich the restoration experiences of the women and girls in our care. Implementing new data collection strategies helps us communicate the impact of your investment. As you review this report, I hope you will enjoy celebrating what God has accomplished this past year.

In 2017, Wellspring Living is working to strengthen our services by enhancing our facilities, making campus safety improvements, expanding clinical care, and creating sustainability by eliminating our debt on the Renewed Hope House in Duluth.

We excitingly invite you to join us as we press on to do even more to end domestic sex trafficking!
