Eagle Freedom Fund Closes $18 Million in the First Investment Fund Dedicated to Tech Solutions Combating Human Trafficking

Mission-driven VC Firm Backs 16 High-growth Companies Delivering Real-world Impact—149 Victims Served, 39 Traffickers Arrested to Date.

Eagle Venture Fund today announced the closing of the Eagle Freedom Fund at $18 million, the first investment fund in the world dedicated to investing in tech innovation to fight human trafficking. The fund has already invested in 16 for-profit technology companies that prevent, detect, or respond to labor and sex trafficking incidents—empowering law enforcement, nonprofits, and frontline organizations with scalable solutions.

The fund’s impact is already being felt in the first few months of operation: its portfolio companies have directly contributed to serving 149 trafficking victims and the arrest of 39 traffickers. These businesses are not only creating measurable social impact—they are also experiencing strong financial growth, evidencing that purpose and profit can go hand-in-hand.

“We are incredibly grateful for the success of this fund and the transformational impact we are seeing in the fight against trafficking,” said Wes Lyons, General Partner at Eagle Venture Fund. “Backing bold entrepreneurs solving the world’s greatest problems is at the core of everything we do, and we are deeply humbled by the founders, investors, and partners who have joined us in this mission.”

A key catalyst in this success has been Eagle’s partnership with the Tebow Group, helping accelerate global efforts to protect the most vulnerable.

“I'm so grateful to be part of the Eagle Freedom Fund, where we’re scaling serious solutions to a serious problem. Fighting human trafficking requires so many people taking action together—counselors, innovators, investors, and operators. It’s an honor to partner with so many amazing leaders in our mission to protect the most vulnerable,” said Tim Tebow, Partner at Eagle Freedom Fund and Founder of The Tebow Group.

The fund’s growth and reach have also been amplified by trusted wealth management partners. Notably, Keel Point, LLC (Keel Point) has played a pivotal role in bringing this opportunity to values-aligned investors, helping to match capital with purpose.

Keel Point CIO Lyle Minton commented, “We have been energized by our partnership with the Eagle Freedom Fund. The fund has been a successful addition to our values-based investment platform, and the portfolio companies are already producing tangible impact results for investors who want to align investment capital with their values and mission.”
