Welcome to Wintre's Wishes Foundation

 

Did you know that "1 in 3 to 4 girls and 5 to 7 boys will be sexually abused by age 18?"

Sexual abuse is a "silent epidemic," according to the American Medical Association. It's so widespread that each of us likely knows someone who is a survivor and an offender, whether we realize it or not. Sexual abuse is "silent" because most of us lack the knowledge and skills to detect and prevent it.  

The WINTRE'S WISHES FOUNDATION is an organization developed to raise awareness [and eyebrows] of sexual abuse in Oregon.  WINTRE'S WISHES is dedicated to SUPPORT, PREVENTION and ADVOCACY for survivors and their supporters.  Our goal is to bring individuals and families together to break down the stigma's associated with sex abuse and to leverage a platform where our voice stands against perpetrators and offenders.  All money raised through this foundation goes to support survivors and prevention of further sex abuse.
