Innocence Freed CEO Julie Shrader and volunteer Amy Bodenner illuminating human trafficking issues in Omaha during the CWS

Thank you, NewsRadio 1110 KFAB, Scott Voorhees, for having one of our amazing volunteers, Amy Bodenner, and our Founder/CEO, Julie Shrader, on your show to discuss our A New Beginning gala on October 2nd.

Be Part of a Life Transformed

When you support Innocence Freed, you’re not just giving to a cause — you’re stepping into someone’s story of healing, hope, and restoration. Join us for our inaugural A New Beginning Gala: Let There Be Light, held at the stunning Astro Theater in La Vista, Nebraska.

This powerful evening will shine a spotlight on the brave journeys of both child and adult survivors of sex trafficking. Your presence and support will help provide safe housing, trauma-informed care, therapy, life skills, and the unwavering message that every survivor is worthy of dignity and freedom.

From the Founder:

This work is deeply personal to me. As a survivor myself, I know what it means to walk through darkness and still believe that light is possible. I started Innocence Freed to be that light for others — to build a place where survivors are seen, heard, and given the tools to heal. When you show up at this gala, you’re standing with survivors — you’re saying, “You matter. Your story matters.”

I hope to see you there.
Julie Shrader, Founder & CEO, Innocence Freed 

 

Be a part of something bigger. Be a part of a changed life.
