World Malaria Day, observed annually on April 25th, emphasizes the global effort needed to control and eventually eradicate malaria, a disease that significantly impacts tropical and subtropical regions. This parasitic disease, transmitted by the bites of infected mosquitoes, poses a serious health threat, disproportionately affecting young children and pregnant women, especially in Africa.

In response, Mission Africa distributes free, life-saving malaria medication to patients who attend our medical outreach each spring. We are grateful for the continued support from our partners and donors who partner with us to address urgent health needs and empower communities toward a malaria-free future.

If our mission moves you and you want to make a direct impact, consider joining us for our 2025 mission trip interest meeting. This is an opportunity to participate in a life-changing outreach while experiencing life in a different culture.

As we celebrate National Volunteer Week, we at Mission Africa are reminded of our volunteers' extraordinary dedication. Whether serving locally by brightening up a child's day with our Back to School Drive, bringing smiles at Christmas through our toy and coat drive, sorting in-kind donations from Amazon and World Vision at our office in Washington State, or engaging globally on our annual mission trip to Nigeria, where local volunteers assist in medical outreaches and student scholarship programs—we're incredibly grateful. Your presence at our events is both a gift and a blessing, enriching our community and strengthening our mission. You are our most outstanding achievement and the wind beneath our wings. We want the world to know that we cannot do it without you, and we thank you. Our volunteers are the true embodiment of "Changing Lives One Village at a Time!"

We need more heroes like you to join us as we continue our mission. There is something for everyone, whether locally in Federal Way, Washington, assisting with immediate needs around the office, or abroad, participating in our spring mission trip.

Mission Africa is excited to host The African Leaders Symposium, facilitated by Pamela Oakes of The Profitable Nonprofit. This complimentary event for nonprofit organizations and leaders in the Pacific Northwest will include an engaging afternoon of training covering fund development, marketing strategies, and program development.

Armed with the knowledge and strategies acquired from this event, attendees will be better equipped to address the diverse needs of the people they serve, ultimately leading to a stronger, more empowered community.

We seek a Project Manager (in Washington State) with 2+ years of professional experience to join our team. The position will be responsible for leading, coordinating, and managing various projects in our organization.

We're thrilled to be back to continue what we started with our Introduction to Canva class Part II!

Canva is a user-friendly graphic design platform that allows users to create graphics, presentations, posters, and other visual content.

Give your young tech enthusiasts the tools they need to express their ideas in vibrant and impactful ways, and register them for our next class on April 27th from 11:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.

All experience levels are welcome. However, we recommend that your learner grasp mouse and keyboard skills well. You did not have to attend Part I to register for Part II, so join us- only three spots are left!

Community Corner: Meet PalCare Nigeria
