Bundles is an initiative to provide intentionally packed bags full of quality, ethnic-friendly hair care products to vulnerable individuals in our anti-trafficking programs, foster families, and single-mom homes. We call the bag we pack these products in a “bundle.”

What are the facts?
Beautiful, ethnic hair requires special hair care products to preserve its shine, beauty, and natural oils. These products can be incredibly expensive to girls and women of color who need them.
RACIAL DISPROPORTIONS EXIST IN FOSTER CARE
African American children represented 14% of the total child population in the U.S. but represent 23% of the children in foster care.¹ Our heart is to make sure these children are provided for with products tailored to what they need.
RACIAL DISPROPORTIONS EXIST IN HUMAN TRAFFICKING
Nearly half of human trafficking victims are African American women.²
Traffickers often promise access to hair care products they know their victims need to create a sense of dependency. Each bundle provides a sense of independence and freedom to survivors in our direct care programs.
