Saffron Trust

Saffron Trust looks to cycle women out of poverty by providing care coordinated services and housing assistance. Saffron Trust provides dedicated advice, assistance, and resources to break the cycle of domestic violence and generational poverty so women and their families can thrive long-term. Focused on addressing generational or cyclical poverty, issues perpetuated by systemic inequality, Saffron Trust creates clear paths for victims of poverty to escape the system. Saffron Trust does this by partnering with nonprofits, community organizations, and businesses and serving as a central point of contact and advocate for women in need of support. This provides women with direct and streamlined access to life-saving resources, allowing them to focus the majority of their energy not on jumping through hoops to access short-term resources and social services, but rather on building a foundation for long-term wellbeing. Saffron Trust builds trust-based partnerships that last for life with the goal of helping women thrive long-term by connecting them with immediate needs such as food, shelter, and healthcare, but also with resources for longer-term education, employment, and mental and emotional health.
