Meet Me at the Well Foundation has several programs in place to aid and serve survivors and their children. Our hope is to support survivors as they move forward in life finding success and value beyond what they imagined for themselves or their children. We come alongside as they recover and build a new life, and offer assistance where and when we can. Donations and volunteers are a large part of each of these programs.

The H.E.A.L. ProgramHEAL is a relationship-based four module workshop that provides survivors with hands-on opportunities to strengthen skills in Health, Empowerment, Autonomy, and Leadership.

Birthday Program
One of the first programs our founder, Amy Day, put in place was the birthday card program. We send each survivor a birthday card with a gift card. Small gestures communicate big things! One woman told Amy she had not received a gift or card since she was seven years old. We were so grateful to break that cycle.
Fresh Start
We offer a variety of items to help with the large expenses of furniture, linens, pantry items, cleaning tools, cleaning products, and hardware such as curtain rods. Unfortunately, we do not have space to accept donations larger than small appliances. Amazon wish lists are very useful and help get donations directly to survivors. If you would like to participate through donations or volunteering, please contact us!

Holiday Support ProgramWe offer survivors everything they need for a holiday meal with their family. Some have family to visit, some have the ability to supply everything, and a few have nothing to offer their children on holidays including Easter, Thanksgiving, or Christmas.

Amy Day ScholarshipAmy Day, our founder, was passionate about helping survivors of sex trafficking to take back their power.
This memorial scholarship will offer assistance to survivors of exploitation in obtaining a GED, certificate or vocational training, college credits or other education related expenses. This is a significant step in supporting their own life and their family. For more information or to apply as a student click here or email [email protected]. |
