SHYNE INVESTS IN SURVIVORS' FUTURES
At Shyne, we believe that survivors of trafficking have incredible potential and resilience. By providing them with the tools and resources they need to succeed as entrepreneurs, we are investing in their futures and helping them achieve financial independence and stability. Through our coaching program, members receive one-on-one coaching and mentorship from experienced business leaders. They learn valuable skills such as financial management, marketing, and leadership. They also receive support in developing their business and securing funding to start or grow their businesses. By investing in survivors' futures, we are not only providing them with the skills to achieve financial independence, we are also helping to break the cycle of exploitation. Survivors who start their businesses are less likely to become re-victimized and more likely to become community leaders and role models. At Shyne, we are proud to invest in survivors' futures and support them as they explore their passions and purposes. We believe that by investing in their potential, we can create a brighter and more just future for everyone. |

FINANCES AGAINST SLAVERY AND TRAFFICKING
United Nations University, Finances Against Slavery and Trafficking (F.A.S.T) Survivor Inclusion Initiative (SII) works with financial institutions and survivor support organizations to address these problems and promote financial access to help prevent and remedy modern slavery and human trafficking.
Having endured exploitation, survivors may find that traffickers have hijacked their financial identity or banking products for money laundering or other criminal purposes, spoiling their credit records and complicating financial reintegration. The Survivor Inclusion Initiative brings together a dedicated coalition of financial institutions and survivor support organizations to facilitate survivor access to basic banking services, such as checking and savings accounts, and to help survivors’ financial recovery to become full financial participants in their communities.
