🍺 SISTER ARUKAH IS HERE. 🍺

And TOMORROW is the day to come try it. 💙💛

Our incredible friends at Laughing Monk Brewing have officially launched Sister Arukah Hazy IPA — a b**r created in support of Arukah Project and the work we do every day to fight s*x trafficking and stand with survivors.

And what better way to launch it than with a FUNDRAISING NIGHT! 🙌

Come grab dinner, order a Sister Arukah, bring your friends, and support an amazing local business that has chosen to stand alongside us in this fight.

✨ 15% of proceeds will be donated to Arukah Project, helping fund emergency response, rescue and recovery, survivor advocacy, and long-term support.

This is one of those nights where simply showing up matters.

✨ THANK YOU, WCF INSURANCE! ✨

We are incredibly grateful to WCF Insurance, one of our Platinum Sponsors of the 5th Annual Freedom Gala! 💙💛

Their generous sponsorship goes far beyond supporting an event—it directly supports the work of rescuing victims of s*x trafficking, responding to survivors in crisis, and helping them take their first steps toward safety and freedom.

When our hotline receives a call and someone needs help getting out, we have to be ready to respond. Partnerships like WCF Insurance help make that possible.

This sponsorship is helping save lives. It is helping bring survivors home. It is helping restore freedom.

Thank you, WCF Insurance, for choosing to stand with survivors and fight alongside Arukah Project. We are so honored to have you as a Platinum Sponsor!

✨ And you do NOT want to miss this night! ✨

Every day, survivors are waiting for safety, support, and the chance to rebuild their lives. Your ticket helps make that possible.

✨ A night celebrating hope, freedom, and restoration

DON’T WAIT! Your presence matters, your support makes a difference, and your ticket helps create a future where survivors are safe, valued, and free.

💙 SO Grateful for the City of Scotts Valley! 💙

Arukah Project is incredibly grateful to the City of Scotts Valley for investing in our mission through its Community Grant Program.

This funding helps strengthen our ability to respond when survivors of human trafficking need immediate support, safety, advocacy, and resources. Investments like this remind survivors that their community sees them, believes them, and is committed to standing beside them.

We are proud to call Scotts Valley home and deeply thankful for a City that recognizes the importance of protecting vulnerable individuals, strengthening community safety, and supporting meaningful solutions to combat human trafficking.

Thank you, City of Scotts Valley, for standing with Arukah Project and the survivors we serve. 💙
