One of the most touching moments came when the manager of the club we couldn’t enter asked our team to pray for him. He shared that he’s been sober for a year and does his best to support the women when they’re struggling.

While the third club didn’t allow entry, we still made sure their gifts were delivered.

As we like to say, “If the gift gets in, it’s a win!”

On our outreach this month, our team had the opportunity to visit the women at two local strip clubs. Our team tried to visit a third, but weren’t able to enter this time.

You don’t have to prove your strength.

You are already enough — even in the heaviness. 💎

Sometimes the strongest thing you can do is acknowledge something is heavy. To pause long enough to feel it. To whisper, “This hurts,” without shame.

Treasures LA @treasuresla.bsky.social · 2d

But here’s the truth: The way you’ve learned to survive is nothing short of remarkable and is a testament to your resilience. You’ve done what you needed to do to make it this far — but now, it’s okay to let yourself be supported too.

Treasures LA @treasuresla.bsky.social · 2d

So many of us have learned how to hold things together — to smile, to show up, to keep going — even when what we’re carrying feels impossibly heavy.

We’ve learned to make the load look light. To say “I’m fine” when our hearts are anything but. 😮‍

When you give, advocate, or volunteer with Treasures, you’re helping women rebuild their lives and believe in their worth again.

You’re saying, “Your life and future matter.”

Treasures LA @treasuresla.bsky.social · 9d

Because of the work we do, women are discovering that healing is possible and they are able to trade their fear for faith, emptiness for hope, and isolation for community.

Every story like this reminds us: change doesn’t happen alone.

“A very warm thank you for making a transformation unfold in my life. The feeling of emptiness and fear is being filled with hope and faith. Treasures is truly making a difference, and the goodwill message is getting heard and felt.”

Real transformation is happening.
