Event Details
We are hosting our first Estate Sale for Freedom event! We put out a call to our Women At Risk, International (WAR, Int’l) family (our wonderful supporters and friends!) to donate items they no longer want or need, and that they’d like to go toward a good cause—creating circles of protection around at-risk and rescued women around the world. They responded by donating many wonderful items that will be for sale for one week only! Proceeds of the sale will go toward WAR, Int’l programming.
Every purchase from the Estate Sale makes a difference! Approximately $300 supports one woman in an international safehouse for one month. During that time, she may work towards finishing her education, gain job training, receive counseling and/or medical care, have her kids in childcare, and more. Though in many cases women work part-time due to these many facets of recovery and starting over, they receive full-time pay. This support enables them to have a fresh start while growing in dignity and empowerment. They can thrive upon leaving the program, rather than being sent out into the world as vulnerable as when they arrived.
Provided the weather cooperates, the Estate Sale will be held outside of our WAR Chest Boutique in our front lawn facing 44th St. If the weather does not cooperate, the estate sale will still take place, but inside. See the address below.
Here are some of the things that people have donated that will be in our Estate Sale for Freedom:
• Artwork
• Three wedding dresses
• Collectible porcelain figures (including Lenox Porcelain Birds, Hawthorn Village Sculptures, and others)
• A handmade quilt
• A stained glass window
• High-quality jewelry
• Wooden jewelry boxes
• China sets (full sets, a variety of beautiful styles and patterns)
• Handbags
• Books
• Electronics
• Cookware and other practical kitchen items
• Collectible decorative plates (such as Reco)
• Kids’ toys and books (in excellent condition)
• Build-a-bear (like new)
• Some pop-culture tchotchkes and collectibles (such as Elvis Figurines, a Wizard of Oz figurine, a Disney Figure, etc.)
• Puzzles
• And more!

No longer do we have the luxury of deciding whether or not we need to know about human trafficking. Learn how to become a circle of protection around the loved ones in your life by coming to one of our Civilian First Responder (CFR) conferences. Here, you will learn what makes a community susceptible to trafficking, how to identify a victim, how to respond to and report suspicious activity, and more. Discover helpful tips, action plans, and ways to protect the innocent.
This highly sought-after conference brings the U.S. government, Homeland Security, law enforcement officers, human trafficking survivors, and the president of Women At Risk, International into one room to educate communities on this dangerous crime.
Three Good Reasons to Host or Attend a CFR Event
