In Toronto, supporting survivors and fighting against human trafficking requires a united community. By coming together and raising awareness, we can help survivors reclaim their lives and provide the support they need for healing. Events like Wings of Hope, hosted by Rising Angels, play a pivotal role in raising both funds and awareness for those affected by commercial sexual exploitation. Through collective efforts, we create a strong foundation for survivors to build a brighter future.
Rising Angels, a registered charity, is dedicated to supporting survivors through education, outreach, and a safe space for healing. Led by Katarina MacLeod, a survivor herself, Rising Angels provides critical services that help women affected by human trafficking and sexual exploitation regain control over their lives. These services focus on physical, mental, social, and spiritual restoration, providing survivors with the tools to overcome trauma and find hope once again.
The Community’s Role in Supporting Survivors
Events like Wings of Hope help raise the necessary funds to continue this essential work, as well as increase public understanding of the challenges survivors face. With educational programs and outreach initiatives, Rising Angels is working tirelessly to combat human trafficking and offer long-term solutions to those in need. As a community, it’s our responsibility to be informed and proactive in supporting these efforts, ensuring that survivors are never left behind.
By coming together at fundraising events and spreading awareness about human trafficking, we take meaningful steps toward creating a safer, more supportive environment for those affected. Each contribution, whether through time, resources, or advocacy, plays a crucial role in the healing process. Supporting survivors in Toronto isn’t just about providing financial assistance—it’s about showing up, listening, and standing in solidarity with those who have experienced unimaginable trauma.
Together, we can make a lasting difference.
