Sandy Storm's Journey: From Trafficking to Triumph with DeliverFund

We have measurable, scalable results in the work to end human trafficking, and the impact that we're making using technology and innovation to solve the problem of human trafficking gives me so much hope.
Imagine enduring two decades of unimaginable trauma, only to emerge stronger and more determined to fight back. That's the story of Sandy Storm, who shares her harrowing experience of being trafficked and sold for sex in this compelling episode of 'Persons with Lived Experience'. Despite facing relentless darkness, Sandy's spirit never wavered. Her journey from a victim of trafficking to a beacon of hope is nothing short of inspiring.
Sandy reveals how she found DeliverFund, a nonprofit that uses cutting-edge technology to combat human trafficking. With their support, she was able to escape her nightmare and start a new chapter in her life. DeliverFund's innovative approach, led by former special operations personnel, has made significant strides in the fight against trafficking, proving that technology can be a powerful ally in this battle. But Sandy's story doesn't stop at her own recovery.
She highlights the importance of education and awareness in preventing trafficking. Guest Tameya Nagy-Payne, another survivor and advocate, joins the conversation to discuss her efforts in creating an international educational portal. This resource aims to educate people about the signs and dangers of trafficking, emphasizing that knowledge is a crucial weapon in this fight. This episode is a stark reminder of the harsh realities of human trafficking in America and the resilience required to overcome such adversity.
It's a call to action for all of us to support organizations like DeliverFund and to educate ourselves and others about this pressing issue. Tune in to hear Sandy's powerful story and learn how hope, resilience, and innovation can lead to freedom.
