Our Mission

Nancy’s Hope and Joy is a charitable organization dedicated to the memory of Nancy Kirk Reed.  Through her selfless sacrifice, Nancy was able to break the cycle of trauma and violence that, like so many women, plagued her family for generations.  Nancy’s love and devotion to her daughters, Melanie Hope and Emily Joy, is an example to us all and the foundation of our charity’s values of self-sacrifice for others, humility, encouraging the self-worth of every individual, unconditional love, and peace through a quiet inner strength.

Nancy’s Hope and Joy’s mission is to fund mental health counseling or services for women who have experienced trauma and/or abuse, and are unable to afford help or need to receive treatment without leaving a financial trail. To this end our board members and executives identify and vet therapists and counselors who adhere to our mission, values, and high ethical standards.  

Nancy’s Hope and Joy is a Washington state based Section 501(c)(3) charitable organization.
