About Healing For The Nations

Healing For The Nations is a registered non-profit 501(c)3 ministry in the state of Alaska. The founder, Jessica Olsen, developed this missions organization on behalf of ministries with whom she served on short term missions. The vision of HFN is to serve the needs of such ministries through advocacy, networking, and intercession. We are their voice to the West.

HFN has only volunteer staff (the Board of Directors), and very low overhead expenses. The Board of Directors do not receive salary or benefits. We are a small organization with a big vision, serving a great and mighty God. It is our goal to keep it this way so that we may send 100% of every donation to the need for which it is designated.
