Mom Army is a survivor-led organization working collaboratively to safeguard the innocence of children and to end exploitation. Envisioning a world where children are loved, safe and honored.
STORY BEHIND THE HOPE BOX:
During one of our weekly team meetings in summer of 2023, one of our chapter leaders was distraught and feeling helpless after learning her 11 year old niece (by marriage) was sexually abused and assaulted by her 14 year old male cousin. The family did not address this issue. This is not an isolated incident.
Just imagine…you are 11 and the unthinkable happens to you. An older, stronger family member takes advantage of their relationship with you and the family chooses to not acknowledge you. What are you left with and who will be there?
This happens more than anyone would care to know. However, in many cases there is a safe adult that is willing to help. It is in this space that the HOPE Box can help to provide resources, support and most importantly hope in knowing these brave children are not alone.
Did you know the average age a victim discloses sexual abuse is 52?
The HOPE Box will be lovingly curated to address the real concerns, challenges and implications of enduring child sexual abuse, in support of the young survivor as they embark on their long healing journey.
Help us support one of these children on their darkest day, so they may have hope for brighter days ahead. Support a HOPE Box with your donation and let them know they are never alone.
