Make Immediate, Life-Changing Access to Healing Possible

Angel Donors provide direct, high-impact support to survivors who need immediate access to healing resources but cannot afford them.

A contribution of $500 or more allows the Scholarship Fund to award full or substantial scholarships to survivors seeking clarity, validation, and guidance after abuse. 

This level of support can remove financial barriers entirely for one survivor, or partially support multiple survivors at once.

Why Angel Support Matters

Many survivors reach out at a moment of crisis:

• They’ve just left

• They’ve just realized what they lived through was abuse

• Or they’re finally ready to name what happened, and need help now

Angel support allows scholarships to be awarded without delay, when clarity and validation matter most.

How Angel Donations Are Used

• Contributions go directly into the Healing by the Numbers Scholarship Fund

• Funds are used exclusively for survivor scholarships

• Applications are reviewed weekly using a trauma-informed, no-shame process

• Scholarships are awarded based on need and readiness

Every dollar is used to expand survivor access to healing resources.

A Note From Dr. Ruth

This fund was created so survivors wouldn’t have to choose between healing and survival.

Angel donors make it possible to say YES to someone who needs help right now, without hesitation, delay, or shame.

Note that Angel donations are deeply appreciated and never publicly disclosed unless explicitly requested by the donor. Angel donors also receive access to a dashboard with quarterly updates on the fund's health and performance. 

If you’re in a position to give at this level, know that your support creates real, immediate impact.

Thank you for being part of this work.

Yours (statistically),
Dr. Ruth
