Real change takes real resources
Your non-profit is dedicated to ending sexual violence. It takes funding to help the women in your community, but that is just the starting point. You must also:
- Learn what works and what doesn’t.
- Grow a team of dedicated leaders.
- Network with the right people, getting new opportunities to connect with donors.
- Manage the ups and downs of cash flow.
- Develop a lasting strategy.
You’re not alone. We help nonprofits through strategic grants and resources, giving holistic help to our partner organizations.
Let us make it easier through our programs.

“The Jensen Project invested in two pilot projects at Restore to address the two greatest needs for survivors in New York City: housing and jobs. Today, these 'projects' are now 'services' that are fully-funded and helping survivors thrive in their recovery journey.”
“As an outcome of this series, we are going to be training more of our staff on revenue strategy and bringing more individuals into the fundraising and reporting process. We were able to make significant headway on our new organizational logical framework, which will allow us to update our program design, reevaluate our staff capacity, and set new targets for our revenue goals. As a team, we were excited and energized to walk away with new plans and ideas for continuing to grow AnnieCannons. By the end of the summer, our goal is to have established new revenue targets that align with our new programmatic design and our new mission statement.”
“TJP (The Jensen Project) represents far more than a foundation offering financial resources, it embodies an unwavering dedication to the cause of anti-trafficking. Not only does TJP provide invaluable financial resources to organizations, but it goes above and beyond by facilitating collaborative efforts among these organizations. By Fostering unity, TJP paves the way for exponential impact, ultimately transforming the entire anti-trafficking movement.”
“Thank you for giving us the time and space, as well as safety to have brave conversations. [The Jensen Project] is breaking down silos. It is giving survivors freedom to say no or to ask for what they need. It is helping those of us who do not identify as a survivor understand and respond in meaningful ways. THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART for how you respect and respond to us. This was huge.”
“(The Jensen Project) has met a need in the human trafficking field to provide a time where service providers can collaborate and talk about the hard topics and best practices this field needs. They have also created a force that has and will continue to change the way service providers serve their clients in this human trafficking field.”

We believe we’re stronger together
As a rape survivor, our founder Janet Jensen discovered that organizations are doing the hard work needed, but faced similar obstacles.
This journey led her to create The Jensen Project, unifying nonprofits in the fight against sexual violence.
The Jensen Project focuses our work on three key categories within sexual violence
Human Trafficking is a crime that involves exploiting a person for labor, services, or commercial sex.
Domestic Violence is a pattern of abusive behavior in any relationship that is used by one partner to gain or maintain control over another intimate partner.
Sexual Assault refers to sexual contact or behavior that occurs without the explicit consent of the victim.
We're in this fight together
You’re helping real women, living real lives—with very real scars. You’ve embraced them with empathy and compassion and chosen to be a part of the solution. But you don’t have to do it alone. Together, we will end sexual violence.
