Hagar International Foundation
Low
Annual Giving
$500K
Grant Range
$10K – $5.0M
Tips for Applicants
Organisations should align with Hagar's three-pillar approach: survivor care, prevention/awareness, and systems change. Prospective partners operating in Southeast Asia or Afghanistan working on human trafficking, exploitation prevention, or survivor support services are most likely to align with this funder's mission.
Giving Philosophy
Hagar takes a holistic, trauma-informed approach to restoration, walking the full journey with survivors through professional care, community support, and systemic change. The foundation prioritises prevention and system strengthening alongside direct care, working in partnership with local communities, governments, and global leaders to address root causes of exploitation rather than symptoms alone.
