“Lastleaf is a non-profit designed to create outreach experiences that inspire faith, strengthen families, and build community at home and around the world.”

“Lastleaf presents the opportunity for families, individuals, and groups to participate on short term missions trips. These trips typically range from 5 to 11 days in length, with both international and stateside destinations. In preparation for a trip, the team participates in an intensive "training day(s)" facilitated by lastleaf. During the training day, members may learn about the country/city they will be going to, dramas/skits/puppet shows or other ministry outreach events, go over trip details (ie. Flight schedule, packing list, preparing for customs, prepare for day to day activities), meet other team members, and have a q and a session. During the trip, lastleaf partners with various charitable organizations like churches, schools and other non-profits through local outreach, event support, and volunteer service. Lastleaf seeks proof of impact for each trip they promote --spiritual growth, physical needs met, personal growth, deeper relationships, and community growth both among the team and with their partnering ministries/non-profit organizations by returning year after year. Projects may include building homes in underprivileged communities, partnering with a church to run a vacation bible school, putting on dynamic school assemblies, giving orphanage aid, funding/building water filtration systems, participating in community service work etc. Once a trip concludes, lastleaf provides weekly discipleship material and follow up communication to all team members for one full year. When the missions trip season ends, trips for the following year are announced and preparation/planning for them begins immediately. Lastleaf actively looks for new opportunities and charities to partner with so that together we strengthen communities both in the u.s. And abroad. Throughout the year lastleaf does fundraising events such as golf outings, meal fundraisers, coffee sales etc. To promote and raise support for upcoming trips. My family project: my family project exists to inspire the family in the home, in the community, and around the world through creative experiences that produce teachable moments. Simply, we provide ideas that parents utilize to reap the benefits of deeper relationships, growth, and experience in their family. My family project offers "one day", weekend, and week long family experiences, family devotions, and small group curriculum to individual families, businesses, and church groups, teaching them the value of how to "say yes to the moment." when a family says yes to the moment, they create memories that will last a lifetime. The moments that my family project creates are a conduit for parents to invest in their child's life and unlock new ways for parents to guide, nurture, and support their kids. At a one day family experience, families are introduced to the my family project model and receive personal training/instruction on how transformation can occur in their family through partnership with my family project. My family project offers a subscription and will mail a "fam box" to subscribing families quarterly throughout the year. Each fam box comes with instructions on a vast variety of family experiences, from spontaneous activities at home to intentional volunteer partnerships with charities in the community to monumental experiences abroad with lastleaf missions. Lastleaf community: the three foundational pillars of lastleaf are missions, family, & community. Lastleaf's influence on the individual and the family go hand in hand with the act of missions for a complete union of community impact. In addition to our international locations, lastleaf plans to partner with up to 5 cities in the continental us each year where missions and community aid are offered. Experiences lasting from one day to a week will be offered for individuals, families, or groups to engage in. Unique to the model of lastleaf, the organization serves in the same cities year after year, both in the united states and internationally.”
