Because...EVERY kid deserves to be a child!
Mission Statement
Saving Lost Kids is a Memphis-based, national 501(c)3 non-profit charitable organization. Our mission is literally Saving Lost Kids, meaning we focus on boldly saving missing, exploited, & sex-trafficking of children through awareness, education, prevention, unification, & practical solutions. We have happily served the children and families of Memphis and Shelby County since 2016 and are quickly expanding to serve the entire Mid-South region, until we eventually reach a national impact.
THREE-CORE PROJECTS
1. Project Prevent & Protect:
Our first and primary project is Project Prevent & Protect. It focuses on preventing child endangerment through education, awareness, prevention training, and protective resources for both children and their families. One of our most effective and recognized services is our Free Child/Teen Safety ID initiative. The bottom-line overall goal of this project is just that: to prevent endangerment and ensure the protection of children, such as to drastically reduce the number of current and future victims.
2. Project Search & Rescue:
Focuses on search and rescue efforts for missing children, and sex-trafficking rescue efforts for victims of Domestic Minor Sex Trafficking (DMST). This project is handled directly by our investigative division, known publicly as the United States Investigative Services Bureau (USISB). Our goal is to provide free investigative services and recovery efforts for children and families who have fallen victim to crimes against children, including missing, exploited, and/or domestic minor sex-trafficking (DMST).
3. Project Restore & Restart:
Focuses on restoring children that have been recovered from being missing or sexually exploited. This is accomplished through connecting with the child to break down the barriers of communication, intervention of reconnecting to the wrong environment, ending the cycle of occurrence, and partnerships with appropriate social services to help the child move one step closer to being whole.
