Our Founder’s Story
Leah M. Forney also side her beloved sister/friend Carmen Hendrix founded SAAVE ME in 2018 driven by their personal journey as a survivors of sexual assault. When Carmen’s life was cut short in September of 2018, Leah decided to continue what they started in honor of the legacy that Carmen left behind. Her experiences with trauma and her work advocating for survivors inspired her to create a movement that provides support and validation for those who need it most. Leah’s vision for SAAVE ME is to ensure every survivor, especially those in marginalized communities, has access to the resources and support necessary for healing and empowerment.
