Movement Minded Partners

SAFE in Central Florida exists to fight human trafficking by building an alliance across organizations dedicated to end human trafficking.

SAFE brings together frontline organizations, law enforcement, the justice system, businesses, churches, and philanthropists as a movement to combat commercial sexual exploitation.

Alliance Partners

We believe that no one can do it all but together we can do more. 

Alliance partners must be willing to collaborate as well as bring resources and expertise to the discussion.  There is no fee to apply for partnership.  

    Advisory Council

    The Advisory Council provides guidance identifies and prioritizes the critical needs and gaps with input on phase strategies and Requests for Proposal (RFP) process.  

    The Council is chosen from Alliance Partners with representation from Frontline Organizations, Individual Champions, and Community Partners.

    Executive Committee

    The Executive Committee provides organization as well as manages the Request for Proposals process with final decision making on grantees and all financial matters.

    The Committee is also responsible for fund raising to support the Phase Strategy projects.

    Donor Advised Fund

    SAFE utilizes a Donor Advised Fund (DAF) to receive donations.  By following the 100% model, SAFE ensures all donations go to the fight against Human Trafficking.

    DAF is a giving account established at a public charity. It allows donors to make a charitable contribution and receive an immediate tax deduction.

    Grants

    Upon receipt of project proposal submissions, the Executive Committee reviews and determines which projects will receive grants.

    Any partner that can address any strategic item included in that specific Phase RFP may submit a proposal for grant consideration.  The RFP may be one large project or may be multiple smaller projects depending on the strategic analysis.

    Impact

    Celebrate completed phases with communication to alliance partners and donors.

    Start the process again to analyze the gaps, select strategic priorities, develop the next phase RFP, select projects, fund raise, provide grants, implement projects….
