Our Initiatives
In order to affect the positive change we wish to see, the Varga Foundation engages in the following activities:
FUNDING
The Varga Foundation provides funding to governmental organizations that specialize in the response to, investigation of, and prosecution of, criminal activity associated with preventable violence. We provide money to law enforcement and prosecutorial agencies to be used for the specific purposes of combating human trafficking, commercial sexual exploitation of children, and preventing targeted violence. Donated funds can be used to purchase equipment and to pay for operational expenses.
We provide funding to non-governmental entities that specialize in support services for victims of preventable violence. The Varga Foundation donates money to social support and charitable organizations that specialize in the provision of services for victims of human trafficking, sexual exploitation, and other acts of targeted violence. Generally, these organizations provide emergency housing, sustenance, and recovery support to violence survivors. Additional funding is provided to organizations that provide health and wellness services, education, and training.
The Varga Foundation provides operational support, funding, and micro investments to mission related startups and businesses.
The Varga Foundation is extremely proud to provide funding to organizations which support the needs of first responders, military personnel, and their families.
