JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Rethreaded, a social enterprise that employs survivors of human trafficking is launching an awareness and building funding campaign during Human Trafficking Awareness Month this January. The goal of this campaign is to finish raising funds for a brand new campus in historic Springfield.
Inside Rethreaded’s current workshop on Barnett Street, women are hard at work making scarves, handbags, jewelry, candles, etc. Every day, these women transform everyday items into works of art. Each finished piece symbolizes a survivor’s freedom. With a new building, Rethreaded’s founder, Kristin Keen, says it’ll be able to expand its mission.
Rethreaded, which provides jobs for human-trafficking survivors, is taking the monumental step that founder Kristin Keen has envisioned since its inception nine years ago.
The Jacksonville nonprofit plans to buy a $1.1 million industrial complex near Springfield that will allow the hiring of four times as many survivors, expansion of its production of upcycled clothing, leather products, jewelry and other items and eventually a sewing school and logistics training. This is the biggest moment in Rethreaded s history, said Keen, her excitement jumping off the screen in a Google Meet interview. It is awesome. … Space has been the only thing stopping us.
