Looking Back

PROJECT MANAGEMENT

Last year we produced 153 marketing products—slide decks, brochures, logo refreshes, story cards, and more—to expand the work of our partners. These materials, along with messaging and communication strategies, help them grow and serve more people, significantly beyond what would be possible without such a partnership.

PARTNER MANAGEMENT

In 2024, five Unseen partners graduated. They are continuing to implement the messaging and marketing Unseen created as they grow and expand their reach.

We began serving 13 new partners, including survivor-led organizations. Each has thoughtful leadership, performs quality anti-trafficking work, and has innovative plans for expansion. Collectively they raise $5,184,543 in annual revenue and directly serve 29,861 people. They work among vulnerable people and trafficking survivors in a variety of countries, including Cambodia, Canada, Colombia, Thailand, and the United States.

Looking Ahead

ONBOARD AND GRADUATE MORE PARTNERS

The trafficking landscape is constantly evolving. In the year ahead, Unseen will seek new partnerships in high-need regions and underserved populations, while graduating select partners—accelerating impact where lives and systems can change.

EXPAND OUR REACH

In 2024, Unseen launched the Strategic Grant Initiative (SGI), a pilot program that channels designated donor contributions to the SGI fund. Our team vets anti-trafficking organizations' building projects and awards strategic grants so that organizations can more quickly expand programs and come alongside more people in need. SGI complements Unseen's traditional operations, enabling us to invest in a broader range of anti-trafficking partners and is a powerful new avenue for accelerating the fight against human trafficking.

GROW SUSTAINABLY

We believe human trafficking is a complex problem that is best tackled with sharp minds, generous hearts, expansive partnerships, innovative technology, and diligent work. When we add new partners or graduate current partners, we assess the workload of Unseen staff managing these partnerships and projects, and hire additional staff as needed.

This year, we launched Unseen Guardians, an opportunity for businesses and corporations to engage as key allies in the mission to combat human trafficking and address its root causes. Through their recurring financial support and collaboration, these partners help fund prevention initiatives, survivor services, education, and community outreach—amplifying our impact and advancing long-term solutions.

REIMAGINE GOVERNANCE

We’re continuing to bring on new board members. We’re striving for a board member mix of leadership experience, diversity (in thought, ethnicity, geography, age, gender, professions), anti-trafficking experience, public influence, and financial capacity to help grow Unseen in significant ways.
