Beloved Not Forgotten with Dawnna Plummer

Send us Fan Mail S3E6- Today's conversation is one of those things we all know exists but don't normally talk about. There are a number of reasons we don't talk about human trafficking. Maybe we aren't well educated on what all it entails or we don't really know what to say, either way, today is going to give you some clarity and information on the topic. This conversation is more of an adult one, so you may want to pop in those headphones. But please, use the information you learn to inform your family about the signs and dangers of human trafficking. My guest today is Dawnna Plummer, the founder of Beloved: Not Forgotten. She has a heart for those who are victimized by this industry and runs this blessed local nonprofit organization to help them and bring awareness. Her story is such a God led one and I'm excited for you to hear it today! At Beloved: Not Forgotten, they provide a safe, loving, home-like environment for women who have been victimized by sexual exploitation and/or trafficking, and they equip them to begin their healing journey. Their trauma-informed staff and volunteers provide opportunities for growth in life skills, addiction recovery, counseling, wellness, and faith. They also prepare the women to gain the most from the program by stabilizing the whole person physically, mentally, emotionally, socially, and spiritually. Financial Information Mentioned in the Conversation: The operating budget for 2023 is $189,400. That breaks down to $15,570/month or $174/resident/day. This number includes the participant care, i.e. medical care and day-to-day living expenses; rent, utilities, program expenses, staff salaries and training, etc. Connect with Beloved: Not Forgotten: website: https://www.belovednotforgotten.net/ donate: https://donorbox.org/support-beloved-s-safe-home contact form: https://www.belovednotforgotten.net/contact FB: @belovednotforgotten If you'd like more encouragement to start your days make sure and check out the 2-3 min daily scripture dives called CCK's right here!
