About Us

Our Story. Our Values. Meet the team driving these core values.

Our Story

Northwest Mission of Hope is a duly registered non-profit organization under IRS Section 501(c)(3) since 2011.


Our mission conducts medical missions to indigent populations here in the Pacific Northwest, to underserved areas in the Philippines and other countries, and to disaster stricken communities.


We depend solely on fund raising events and donations from generous benefactors for our financial needs. All of the donations are used for the purchase and delivery of medicines, surgical/dental and vision supplies, equipment and logistics. Volunteers pay for their own transportation, lodging and food.
