One recipient of these meals is Project Mona's House, whose mission is to help women who have been victims of human trafficking. They provide housing, coaching, and even travel to schools and have workshops to educate students. It is the only restoration house specifically for victims of human trafficking on the entire west side of New York State. They are also expanding their services with the FreeTHEM Center which is a drop-in community center where human trafficking survivors along with at-risk women and children can go to develop life skills, receive counseling and support. Founder Kelly Diane Galloway hopes that the Bills initiative is only the beginning in bringing more attention to black-owned restaurants and businesses.
"I think that is a great start to hopefully something that can continue," Galloway said. "Sometimes black-owned businesses don't get a lot of attention as other companies do, and sometimes it's not as easy to franchise and things like that. So, for the Bills to support locally black-owned businesses in Buffalo, New York, to me is a reflection of how Buffalo feels about the Bills. We love the Bills and it's nice to know that the Bills love us back."
