HOW MONEY MOVES

Fund the work without commercialising the survivor.

Survivors are not products, leads or fundraising content. The platform funds coordinated access to professional help.

01

Funds enter transparently

Grants, donations and corporate funding are separated into operating and ring-fenced case funds.

02

Support is approved independently

Defined decision rights, eligibility rules and conflicts checks determine what can be funded.

03

Verified providers deliver

Contracted professionals may be paid against approved scopes and invoices. Pro bono commitments remain pro bono.

No survivor pays to enter the network.No donor receives confidential case access. Coordination costs are reported separately from direct case support.

This is not a case-reporting form.Do not submit confidential case details, allegations or a survivor’s story here. We only collect information needed to assess founding-network participation.
