WE BELIEVE EVERY CHILD DESERVES TO BE SAFE, PROTECTED, AND FREE.
But not all children live in a home that is safe or have access to quality education that protects their rights. We provide education, training, and resources that keep children safe from sexual abuse.

When Children Find Their Voice: Building Safety From Where I Stand
I used to dream of a community where children could grow up not feeling afraid. Where women didn’t have to scream every night. Where survivors could rise as leaders and lean into their lived experiences to bring the change they wanted to see. The dream didn’t come from some abstract place, it came from living in Kibera, from knowing what it feels like when poverty exposes girls to vulnerabilities, from understanding firsthand what happens when children don’t have the language to recognize violence as it’s happening to them.
Principles of Survivor-Centered Ethical Storytelling for Nonprofits
The “survivor complex” is real, and it deeply impacts the people we walk alongside. The survivor complex is a psychological and relational pattern that develops when a person has survived trauma and begins to relate to themselves primarily through the identity of “survivor.” It often forms because systems, communities, and even support programs repeatedly reinforce this identity, sometimes unintentionally.
Q& A From Pain to Power – The Super Girls Revolution with Magdalene
As a survivor of sexual violence, I started SGR in my mother’s backyard because the need to ensure girls were supported through mentorship, education, and empowerment was so urgent. My dream was always consistent: to mentor girls to take up space and be leaders, allowing every light in the community to shine.
the hope circle is an unshakable community of monthly givers that believe survivors.
Your donations literally encircle each scholar at Freely in Hope — providing them with what they need to not just survive, but to thrive.
