MISSSEY works to prevent girls and gender-expansive youth from ever entering circumstances of sexual exploitation and violence. We also support young people who are experiencing exploitation to exit. Once they’ve exited, we partner with youth so that they may avoid re-entering sexually exploitative circumstances and live free of harmful transactional relationships.
By participating on May 20th, you're supporting our vision of creating a different world for Black girls and gender-expansive youth, one where they can lead liberated, self-determined, and joyful lives free from sexual exploitation and violence.
"As someone with multiple food allergies and dietary restrictions, I'm not usually able to eat at these fundraisers. But I still wanted to contribute to the Chipotle fundraiser: I had the idea to donate my meal to someone who enjoys Chipotle and is experiencing hunger or food insecurity. I reached out to the organizers to see if this was a possibility, and they were thrilled with the suggestion. Knowing that my meal would be able to provide nourishment to someone in need while also supporting the vision of MISSSEY felt like a win-win situation. My friends are going to stop by for food to take to their community fridge too!" -MISSSEY Supporter
Thank you to our supporter for allowing us to share this anecdote. We appreciate your support and hope others in a similar situation will consider this option as well. We appreciate every effort made to support our work to build a world that values and honors the young people we serve, allowing them to build and sustain thriving communities for themselves and their families.
Please join us on May 20th and share the event with like-minded individuals.
Let's create a world where all young people can live free of harmful transactional relationships and thrive. We hope to see you there!
