Overview

Mission

1Saved is a Christ-centered nonprofit organization committed to fighting sex trafficking through prevention, intervention and aftercare.

What it reported doing in 2024

1Saved supports a gospel-centered aftercare facility in The Philippines with fund raising, encouragement, prayers and visits. In 2024, 1Saved provided enough funds to open an admission home for newly rescued clients--in addition to supporting the girls and boys homes that are already in operation on the property. Currently, the home is serving 43 children who have been rescued out of sex trafficking. We will continue to provide funds for these children to receive an education, psychological and medical care, food, clothing and security in a safe and loving home. It is our hope that each child rescued out of horrific situations will be restored to new hope and new life by the power of the Gospel.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. The filing reports few safeguards for money sent abroad and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
