Hi, I’m Samantha Dallett.
Originally from New Jersey, I now live in North Florida, where I’ve been actively pursuing my work as an artist, model, actor, and activist. My journey has been anything but easy, but it’s shaped who I am and fueled my passion to help others.
After graduating from UNF, I found myself navigating the aftermath of sexual violence, addiction, toxic relationships, and the painful process of healing. In 2020, while the world shut down, I had what I call my “Britney Spears moment”—I buzzed off all my hair for the first time. That act marked the beginning of real change in my life.
Coming out of the pandemic, I was desperate to find sobriety, healing, and a community that truly supported me. In 2021, I co-founded a small nonprofit with a local photographer in Jacksonville called The Every 68 Seconds Project—named for the devastating statistic that every 68 seconds, someone in America is sexually assaulted. Our mission was simple but powerful: use art activism to uplift and support survivors of sexual violence.
In three years, we worked with over 100 survivors, participated in multiple art exhibitions, spoke at city and military events, and appeared in podcasts and news interviews. This project became more than just a nonprofit—it became an extension of my identity and healing.
But in the fall of 2024, after three years of passion and hard work, my co-founder stepped away. Despite our efforts, we hadn’t secured sustainable funding, our nonprofit filing was rejected, and I found myself burned out, in debt, and at a crossroads. I couldn’t continue alone—at least not without help.
And that’s why I’m here.
I’m raising $10,000 to revive and legitimize The Every 68 Seconds Project by filing for EIN and nonprofit status, paying off the debt I accrued while self-funding the project, and setting the groundwork for sustainable operations moving forward.
To mark this turning point and bring awareness to the cause, I’ll be shaving my head LIVE on TikTok—with no guard. This isn’t just a stunt. Shaving my head represents my autonomy, my resistance to the oversexualization of women, and a challenge to the toxic beauty standards that help perpetuate rape culture in America.
This fundraiser is about more than just money—it’s about reclaiming power. It’s about supporting survivors. It’s about showing the world that we are not just statistics.
If you’ve ever wanted to help make a difference, now is the time. Your donation will not only help me get this project back on its feet, but it will also help build a community and platform where survivors are seen, heard, and supported.
Plus—you’ll get to watch me buzz my head!
Follow along on TikTok and social media for updates and footage from the event.
Thank you for believing in this work, and in me. Let’s do this—together!
