We are believing that at least 100 individuals and/or families in the community are eager to join us in ending sex trafficking in Gainesville. Our goal in the "Be the 100" Campaign is to have these 100 monthly partners by the end of 2020.​ This opportunity enables our supporters to sow deep, long-term seeds into the mission of Created Gainesville while also ensuring the sustainable development of our overall operation. Monthly giving is the lifeline of our fundraising efforts and empowers us to focus on our mission of reaching and restoring lives, rather than on our monthly fundraising efforts.  
​Will you be 1 in the 100?

"​Growing up addicted to pornography, I never knew who was on the other side of the screen.  The woman, the daughter, the image-bearer of God, she was only a means for my own brokenness.  I didn't comprehend that my own addiction was becoming someone else's problem; my bondage was contributing to someone else's chains.  

When I was 22 years old I reached a breaking point.  I cried out for help and someone heard me in my distress.  Jesus revealed himself to me in a dream and that was the beginning of a long process towards freedom.  The addiction that began at 9 years old was uprooted by the powerful, selfless love of God. I am free by the precious blood of my King, my Jesus.

Those chains have been broken for more than four years now, but God's not finished; I'm not finished.  Why do I support Created? Because I know Jesus didn't die for my freedom alone - He died for ALL! He died for the porn-addict and the porn-star!

It's important for me not to just walk away from my addiction, but walk toward those who God loves. I support Created because I don't want to forget those I neglected. I want my heart to be with these women who the Created team run after. I believe Created is an earthly illustration of Jesus leaving the 99 sheep to run after the one, and it's an honor to partner with such a beautiful ministry reflecting the One who ran after me."

"We believe one of the most heartbreaking things in this life is living under a lie. These women have been lied to and we intend to break those lies. My wife and I have worked alongside and supported Created for six years, and the most significant thing we've witnessed is watching women come to know TRUTH! We support Created because we believe these women are worth fighting for! 
​
We truly believe Created is the absolute image of the Gospel. Jesus came to us when we couldn't get to Him. In the same way, Created seeks out women who are held in spiritual and physical bondage. There is a Kingdom reality (freedom in body, soul and spirit) that these women have not yet tasted. Created is bringing that reality."

"We have seen news stories about the sex trafficking problem and even heard stories from visiting  missionaries at church that share how big the problem is overseas, but it wasn't until we went to a local event that Created put on that we heard of the problems here in Gainesville.  The thought that this is going on locally is frightening. We thought that by living in a small town things like that don't happen here, but we were wrong.

We believe that others should financially support this cause because it's biblical.  This is a spiritual battle that Satan wants to win and he wants to keep the Church in the dark about it."

"We have supported the mission of Created Gainesville since day one, because there wasn’t any organization in our area going out to meet women suffering from sexual exploitation right where they are and offering connection, relationship and resources toward healing. Now Created leaders are doing not only this, but have also become a strong voice in our churches and community to change the way we view these women, restoring the dignity and value they deserve as daughters made in the image of God who are worth fighting for.

Because of our work with vulnerable children, we began to see that most of the women Created serves are these same vulnerable kids who have simply crossed that line into adulthood. Created is there to make sure these women are not forgotten and offers them hope to break the cycle of abuse and exploitation that has marked their lives, so that they are now empowered to create a new future for their kids. The long term impact of this is vital for these families and for our community!"
