Natives With A Mission (NWAM) is an organized effort with a two-fold endeavor; 1) to give an opportunity for Native American young people to step outside their culture and share the love of God with other Native American people, and 2) to witness to young Native American children about the loving Creator who has a plan for their lives.
With that in mind, Phyllis Washington, coordinator of NWAM set out to find approximately 30 young people who would like this experience. The summer of 2008 was the testing ground and was a huge success. We are in the midst of the second endeavor with four groups of young people presenting VBS programs all over the United States.
How You Can Help
This program is completely supported by donations from people who want to help in ministering to Native American children. These donations cover the cost of travel, food, lodging, supplies, and a few fun activities along the way. Because of the financial state of all of the students, they are dependent on help from others to even leave the school to attend the NWAM events. Your tax deductible donations make a huge difference in NWAM even being able to continue. We guarantee that 100 percent of all donations will go to NWAM.
