Our Children’s Ministry is growing in 2025!
The OUGM Kids Program has seen remarkable growth, expanding its reach and impact within the community.The after school program has become a cornerstone for supporting children in need by offering homework assistance and nutritious dinners in a safe and nurturing environment. With a dedicated team and growing community support, the program is not only helping children succeed academically but also fostering hope and stability for their families. As more children join the program, OUGM continues to break the cycle of homelessness by empowering the next generation with the tools and care they need to thrive.
Christmas 2024!
We are deeply grateful to our incredible donors for helping us make Christmas 2024 truly magical for the kids we serve. With your help we were able to hand out over 2500 stockings to local kids! Your generous contributions have brought joy and warmth to children who need it most, filling their holiday season with laughter, love, and unforgettable memories. From thoughtful gifts to festive meals, your support has been instrumental in creating a celebration that reminds these kids they are cared for and cherished. Thank you for being a vital part of this mission and for spreading hope and holiday cheer in such a meaningful way!

HELPING CHANGE OUR SOCIETY – One Person at a Time
The Olympia Union Gospel Mission is about people – like you and me – with one big difference; the people we work with are homeless and poverty stricken. One of the ways every one of us are alike, regardless of our status, is our need for dignity, self-worth and respect. Our commitment is to respect each person we meet and to demonstrate God’s love in practical ways.
