Purposeful Giving: Members can contribute funds or resources to support survivor services, such as shelter, clothing, and legal aid. Morgan emphasizes the importance of recurring donations to ensure sustainable support for these initiatives.
Collaborations and Partnerships: Leverage business connections to create partnerships with organizations combating human trafficking. This could involve sponsorships, providing employment opportunities for survivors, or hosting fundraising events.
