When a survivor goes to the hospital to have a forensic exam by a  SANE (Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner), often called a "rape kit," and law enforcement is involved, many times their belongings are seized as evidence. They are left with nothing to wear home from the hospital.

A Beloved Bundle includes: clothing, undergarments, hygiene products and other necessary items so that the survivor can leave with dignity and know that someone cares.

Emerging as a restorative project following the tragic and senseless death of Molly Jane Matheson, Beloved Bundles offer a critical first step in returning a sense of dignity and respect to sexual assault survivors, allowing the healing process to begin.
