Our Mission
Globally, over 4 million people are trafficked for labor or sexual exploitation and approximately 600,000 to 800,000 missing persons cases are opened each year in America. Together 4 Them is a 501(c) nonprofit organization created by Joana Prado Belfort, wife of Vítor Belfort, to bring unique awareness and educational programs about human trafficking and missing person cases to communities across the country and the world. With a deep personal connection to the situations these victims and their families have been through, Joana and Vitor have made Together 4 Them their top priority to help survivors, as well as drive momentum forward for those who are still without closure. Together 4 Them is preparing several new initiatives to further our work of providing community, connection, new hope, and rejuvenation. Join us in our efforts and stay tuned for more important announcements to come!
On January 9th, 2004
Priscila Belfort, Vitor’s sister, went to work in Rio de Janeiro downtown, Brazil, as she used to do everyday.
However, she never returned home after that day. The Belfort family didn’t know what to do and where to go. After contacting the police, they searched for Priscilla tirelessly without a positive solution. To this day, Priscilla is still missing, and the Belfort family is trying to find answers. Together 4 them was established in 2019, a 501© nonprofit organization that has it mains goal to bring awareness about human/sex trafficking and to educate the communities on the dangers of predatory violence, thus preventing any human being abduction.

About us
While some may not know it, the issues of human trafficking and missing persons are deeply personal for Joana and Vitor Belfort. In 2004, Priscilla Belfort, Vitor’s sister, went missing and has yet to be found. This tragic event and the ensuing circumstances are all too common in the modern era, and the pain that families feel can last for years, even a lifetime.
While the Belfort family endures the uncertainty and sadness of their own case, they also chose to take action on behalf of victims and families across the planet by creating the Together 4 Them nonprofit organization. It is a chance to bring together and partner with other organizations to create awareness and empower others on how to protect themselves from predators and join the cause to combat (and eventually defeat) human trafficking in all forms.
For Joana and Vitor, and their entire team of volunteers, Together 4 Them is their personal labor of love, and a way to give back to others. The goal is to reach every neighborhood and impact every community where human trafficking and missing persons cases have left a scar. It’s their way to ensure that those considered most vulnerable are helped – with meaningful connections and pathways to healing. Some call it social responsibility, Joana and Vitor call it “loving and helping others.”
There's no limit to what we could raise!
