I know of no organizations that deal with this specifically. Maybe people who care enough to ask this question can make a difference by understanding and pointing toward the solutions. I know there is an answer to this question, but help may not come from a formal charity. It may come from an unexpected source. Charity is more an attribute than an agency. If all you can spare is a quarter, then give it. If you need a dollar, ask the generous for .

There are many organizations that are willing to help these women with addictions, poverty, and all of that. The problem is that many women in prostitution see prostitution as the answer to the problems, not the source. Although they may not like it, they may see it as their only option.

That being said, there is no charity that I know of (and I know of a lot) that SPECIFICALLY TARGETS prostitutes. If you’re interested in starting one, you might want to hook up with city officials for funding and support for your campaign. Then focus your first orders of business on educating women involved in prostitution on statistics that might show them the errors of their ways. You would also have to hook them up with organizations that can help them with their issues specifically.

There’s obviously a need for such a charity. I think there might not be one yet simply because it’s very tricky business to be involved in. For example, if you give a prostitute a pamphlet and her “manager” happens to find it, he might beat her endlessly of fear that he will lose money or be reported to law enforcement. If anybody starts such an organization, they will have to act extremely swiftly for a non-profit.
