Hope Ranch family,
What an exciting August it has been!
Almost 450 people packed out the Hyatt Regency Grand Eagle Ballroom for a delicious dinner, inspiring program, and a great challenge from our keynote speaker, Susan Pompeo. We were blessed. Thank you to all who attended our “Embrace Hope Change a Life” banquet!
Whether you attended, or were not able to come, you can still give to support our efforts in helping women heal from the darkness of sexual exploitation and trafficking.
Susan Pompeo challenges all who attended to the heaviness of this evil around the world and in our neighborhood.
“If there ever was a patriots cause, this is it. If there was ever a Christians cause, this is it, because it is our duty to protect the most vulnerable.”
— Susan Pompeo
“According to intofreedom.org, the average victim of human trafficking is raped 6000 times.”
— John Oelze
We need you to help us stop this evil. Donate to support our cause.
The Heartbreaking Truth

Stats from RefugeForWomen.org.
These women wake up every morning with seemingly no way out of the horror of sex trafficking, violence, threats, substance abuse, manipulation, and homelessness they have been forced to endure. The heart of Jesus compels us to do whatever it takes to help provide healing from the evil they have experienced. It’s time to say “not on my watch”. It’s time to intervene. That is why Hope Ranch for Women exists… and Your partnership is vital today!
Each instance of human trafficking takes a common toll; each crime is an affront to the basic ideals of human dignity, inflicting grievous harm on individuals, as well as on their families and communities.”
— Official Statement, U.S. Department of Justice
Human trafficking victims experience trauma, PTSD, anxiety, addictions, and/or suicidal thoughts. They desperately need help. Today you can reach out with compassion, care, and hope to help women like Kim and Liv*.

Kim’s Story
“Hope Ranch is the best thing that ever happened to me. If it wasn’t for Hope Ranch, I wouldn’t be alive today.”
Liv’s Story
“I truly started at the very bottom. I have never been able to stay at a program for more than a month, until Hope Ranch. I am so grateful for my tears, because without them, I would not have grown into the woman I am now. I am who I am now, because of Hope Ranch.”
