FAIR Girls (formerly FAIR Fund) is an anti-human-trafficking organization, founded in 2003 and headquartered in Washington, D.C.[1][2] The FAIR acronym stands for Free, Aware, Inspired, Restored. They operate in Bosnia, Montenegro, Serbia, Russia, Uganda, and the United States.[3] NASCAR driver Stanton Barrett is an executive board member and has prominently advertised for FAIR Girls through his cars.[4]

FAIR Girls focuses on addressing sex trafficking and child prostitution.[5][6][7][8][9][10] The organization received funding from the Office for Victims of Crime in 2019.[11]
