How Jackie is Building a Movement Against Sex Trafficking and Raised almost $30,000
When Jackie organized her first charitable motorcycle ride, she was drawing on something that had been part of her long before the planning began. Growing up surrounded by civil servants and military veterans, helping others wasn’t optional — it was simply part of who they were. That upbringing led her into emergency medicine, where she worked as an EMT before becoming a hairstylist. The job changed. The calling didn’t.
Today, Jackie uses her talent for bringing people together to accomplish the purpose that has defined her life: protecting the helpless. She has felt the pull toward defending those in human trafficking for years, and now she’s inviting others into that fight alongside her.
Jackie’s Role in the Fight
When asked why the fight against sex trafficking matters so deeply to her, Jackie’s answer wasn’t complicated. To her, trafficking isn’t someone else’s problem. It’s a human problem. “It’s evil,” she says plainly. The reality of trafficking is difficult to look at, but Jackie believes that’s exactly why people must refuse to look away. Every victim represents someone’s son, daughter, or friend. Every rescue begins with people willing to step into the fight.
For Jackie, this mission is as spiritual as it is practical. Behind the statistics and the headlines, she sees a battle between good and evil — and she believes that standing against trafficking means standing for the God-given dignity of every person. It’s a fight she believes Christians are called to enter with courage rather than comfort.
The Biker Community’s Connection
At first glance, motorcycles and anti-trafficking advocacy may seem like an unlikely combination. Jackie sees it differently. The biker community has always been built on loyalty, sacrifice, and looking out for one another. Many riders come from military, first responder, or law enforcement backgrounds. Others simply share a deep commitment to protecting those who cannot protect themselves.
What unites them is the refusal to look at evil and do nothing. The ride gave that refusal a shape — something tangible, something worth showing up for.
The F.A.S.T. Ride (Fight Against Sex Traffcking)
There were moments when the workload felt overwhelming. But every detail pointed toward something much larger than a single Saturday ride. Jackie never viewed the event as simply organizing motorcycles. She viewed it as building a movement.
Every fundraiser has a moment that reminds organizers why they said yes. For Jackie, it happened almost immediately. As the ride began, she looked over her shoulder and saw a line of motorcycles stretching out behind her. Months of planning suddenly became something real — dozens of people choosing to stand together for children and families they had never met.
If we can help just one operation,” she reflected, “it’s worth it.” Success wasn’t measured only by dollars raised. It was measured by people deciding that evil would not go unanswered.
This years F.A.S.T. Ride raised almost $30,000. Putting subject matter experts directly in the fight.
Bigger Than One Ride
Although this year’s ride marked an exciting turning point, Jackie sees it growing even more. Her vision is to continue growing F.A.S.T. into a year-round movement, culminating each year in an even larger motorcycle ride supporting E3 Ranch Foundation. She hopes to partner with community leaders, businesses, and experienced event organizers, including a former local rock radio DJ known for coordinating successful charity rides, to expand the event’s reach and impact.
The goal isn’t simply to host another fundraiser. The goal is to build a community that continues fighting throughout the year. Because the need doesn’t disappear when the engines stop.
A Mission Worth Remembering
When asked what she hopes people remember years from now, Jackie doesn’t mention motorcycles. She doesn’t mention attendance. She doesn’t even mention fundraising totals. She hopes people remember the mission. She wants them to remember that they stood together against evil. That they chose action over apathy. That if even one life changed because a community decided to show up, every mile ridden was worth it.
Jackie found her own way to answer that call — with a motorcycle ride, a vision called F.A.S.T., and the belief that ordinary people can accomplish extraordinary things when they unite behind a mission bigger than themselves.
You don’t need a motorcycle to join this fight. You just need a community and a cause worth rallying around. Start your own fundraiser for E3 Ranch Foundation and bring the people around you into the mission.
