Be Creative!

In advertising your fundraising event, be sure to make it clear that all proceeds will go towards North Star Initiative in helping survivors of sex trafficking. When the proceeds go towards a good cause that your friends & family support, your event is more likely to be a success. This is a practical way for you to raise money for our mission in ways we can’t do ourselves. We appreciate your partnership and are eager to see what you come up with!

All checks and money coming in from events put on for North Star Initiative will be acknowledged through our social media.
