A Decade of Redemption:

The 2026 Capital Campaign 

For ten years, From the Ground Up Ministries has stood on the front lines, providing faith-based restoration for teenage girls rescued from the horrors of human trafficking. While 2025 was a year of historic victory—with 225 children rescued through operations Home for the Holiday, Northern Lights, and Tiger Eye—it also exposed a devastating reality: Florida currently has only 30 specialized beds available for these survivors. Our $800,000 Capital Campaign is the key to closing this gap. By investing in a new safe house and expanding our specialized trauma team, we are ensuring that when a child is rescued, we never have to say "no" due to a lack of space. Together, we can provide the sanctuary and lifelong restoration these resilient girls deserve.

Who We Are

Beyond Shelter: True restoration requires more than a roof. We provide intensive trauma-informed therapy, educational support, and vocational training to equip girls for independent futures.

Faith-Based Healing: We work to redeem the spirit, fostering deep emotional and spiritual healing that restores a girl's inherent dignity and self-worth.

Ending the Cycle: By empowering resilient individuals with life skills and spiritual integration, we contribute to safer communities and disrupt trafficking networks for good.

why this matters

The Critical Gap: Last year, over 700,000 individuals, many of whom were children, were exploited in Florida. Despite this, there are only 30 specialized beds available in the entire state for rescued children.

Immediate Safety: Without a safe bed, rescued girls remain at an alarmingly high risk of re-exploitation, trapped in a cycle of darkness.



A "Yes" for the Next Rescue: In 2025, operations like Home for the Holiday, Northern Lights, and Tiger Eye rescued 225 children. Your investment ensures that when the next girl is rescued, we have a secure, therapeutic bed waiting for her.
