Jubilee REACH
Bring Jesus’ healing, build community, transform lives.
Jubilee REACH is located in Bellevue – the largest minority majority city in Washington. The mission of Jubilee REACH is to bring Jesus’ healing, build community and transform lives of the students and their families in Bellevue. We believe every child has the desire to be loved, known, affirmed and belong to something greater than self.

Jubilee REACH steps in the gap for those in need, providing access to programs and services focused on growing community and empowering our youth.

Strengthening families, raising leaders.
Urban Impact serves in the Rainier Valley of Seattle. Their mission is to strengthen families and raise servant leaders by building life-changing relationships that encourage good health, quality education, and economic opportunity. Urban Impact addresses systemic and individual responsibility for poverty through three program areas: education, health and economics.
New Horizons
Serving Seattle’s street youth.
New Horizons, on the street since 1978, is helping youth make lasting life changes. The youth served face daunting physical, social, emotional, developmental and spiritual challenges. Developmentally and culturally, youth living on the street don’t live or look for tomorrow. New Horizons endeavors to provide resources, hope, encouragement and support for youth who are beginning their journey away from street life.
Olive Crest

Olive Crest is dedicated to preventing child abuse, to treating and educating at-risk children, and to preserving the family… “One Life at a Time.” Olive Crest works tirelessly to meet the individual needs of kids in crisis by providing safe homes, counseling, and education for both youth and parents. Their many innovative programs reflect their conviction that strengthening the family is one of the most powerful ways to help heal children. With unwavering compassion, the Olive Crest family maintains a lifelong commitment to the youth and families they serve.
Raven Rock Ranch
Rescuing horses & recovering kids.
Raven Rock Ranch, established in 2011, rescues horses and pairs them with at-risk children. Over 85% of their kids are either in foster care or in adoptive homes. Most have experienced some traumatic event that has caused them to attempt suicide, cut themselves, fail in school, use drugs or find it impossible to establish healthy relationships. Their horses, when used in Equine Facilitated Psychotherapy with these kids, can lead them out of self-destructive behaviors. Raven Rock Ranch has a 96% retention rate of families and children, and a success rate of over 94%. Their children have become leaders in their communities, receiving awards for leadership, achieving top grades and developing friendships that are healthy and strong.
Gateway Medical Alliance
Assisting the poor and disadvantaged around the world
Gateway Medical Alliance’s humanitarian efforts began by shipping our first container of medical supplies and equipment to Morocco in 1997. To this day, GMA recognizes this service as the cornerstone effort of its organization. Volunteers from around the Puget Sound have packed and prepared over 103 shipping containers filled with medical supplies and equipment to assist the poor and disadvantaged around the world. The contents of these containers include basic hospital equipment, surgical instruments, and consumable medical supplies which support GMA projects and supplement the resources of clinics and hospitals in Morocco and Beyond.
Reality Sports
Training the bodies, minds & hearts of our youth.
Reality Sports is a sports ministry that aims to share the life-changing message of the gospel of Jesus Christ with athletes and families, and to make “disciplers” of Jesus Christ within the context of sport. Established in 2006, Reality Sports operates year-round sports programs in the south Puget Sound region in Baseball, Martial Arts, Soccer, and Wrestling, as well as shorter sports programs that run during the summer. The Reality Sports model of offering “open” training on a donation basis, as well as fielding competitive (“select”) teams, allows athletes of all socioeconomic backgrounds and skill levels to access quality training for the body, mind and soul.
