Overview

Mission

Run 2 rescue is a christian organization that will reach, rescue, and restore victims of human trafficking. To reach in the darkness and identify the victim and pull them out of bondage, to rescue the victim and put them in a safe living environment, and to restore them to a full and abundant life. Once a victim is rescued with our organization, they are with family. This will not be a group home, this will be their home.

What it reported doing in 2024

Rescue: once a victim is identified we will do everything we can to protect them and provide a safe place for them recover and heal. Our home will be called the "gateway of hope". We welcome girls who have been trafficked as young as 11 years old and up to 27 years old. We are not designed to be a group home as we seek to place these victims with vetted families. We seek to be a place where these kids can feel safe and eventually be healed from the ravages of trafficking. It will be a place where beauty dwells. We dream it will be a place where girls can work with horses and animals, plant their own gardens and have things they can call their own. It will be a time where healing can begin and where they can learn how the lord speaks tenderly to them. Hosea 2:14

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 89% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and expenses are high relative to revenue.
