Empty Streets is the world’s largest youth-led 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to combating human trafficking. Founded by Seohyun Lee, the organization focuses on supporting survivors and educating young individuals to prevent future victims. We provide direct aid to survivors, including urgently needed dental care, meal packs, and hygiene kits. Through education, outreach, and action, we empower youth to take an active role in ending human trafficking and making a tangible difference in their communities.

We organize awareness activities to educate communities while also supplying victims/survivors with donations, cards, care packages, and more.

We also host fundraisers year-long, create informational social media posts, and collaborate with other youth-led organizations and NGOs to share knowledge, resources, and best practices in avoiding human trafficking.
