Mission
Light and Hope for the Philippines was founded in May 2023 by Gerry and Emalinda (Lindsey) Bouffard. As a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt, veteran, minority, and woman-owned organization, our mission is to be the hands and feet of Jesus Christ in the Philippines. We are dedicated to providing hope to the lost, love to the forgotten, light in the darkness, relief to the suffering, and compassion to the hurting. We will accomplish this mission by focusing on three key areas: Child Poverty, Community Enrichment, and Christian Education.

​​"For I was hungry, and you gave Me something to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me something to drink; I was a stranger, and you invited Me in; naked and you clothed Me; I was sick, and you visited Me; I was in prison, and you came to Me." (Matthew 25:35-36, NASB)

How then will they call on Him in whom they have not believed? How will they believe in Him whom they have not heard? And how will they hear without a preacher? (Romans 10:14-15; NASB)
