In 12 years at Starfish Project, our Outreach Teams have found some very creative ways to form relationships with women working in the red light district. In the first few years, we had every kind of party. We hosted events to celebrate Easter, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Valentine’s Day- anything to get women into the room to spend time with us. Our Outreach teams are the first to help a woman experience freedom. These pictures are from a Thanksgiving party years ago. In 12 years, we’ve watched over 125 women experience freedom, establish independence, and develop careers. Thank you for being part of the Starfish Project family these last 12 years.
This was a Thanksgiving Party we threw for the women in the shelter several years ago! With your help, we are able to pour into these women and girls to restore hope. Thank you for partnering with us!
