Last Mile Harvest Missions Foundation, a missions focused organization established in early 2026 with the sole purpose of providing support for missionaries and mission agencies working in unreached places of the world, will be formally inaugurated on November 7 at the Foursquare Church Nigeria, Asokoro, Abuja.
The co-founder of the foundation, Prof. Jimmy Adegoke, an emeritus professor of geosciences from the USA and international development consultant, made this known in a statement made available to Church Times.
The foundation is governed by two independent Boards of Trustees—one in the United States and another in Nigeria. It connects donors from the global church and international foundations directly with verified indigenous mission agencies and missionaries in hard-to-reach regions of the world.
According to Adegoke, the missions body will be launching a pipeline of funding, healthcare, and logistics for frontier workers in the 10/40 Window of the world and beyond.
He noted in the statement that “there are thousands of communities worldwide that still have no access to the gospel of salvation or sustained spiritual outreach. The obstacle is seldom a shortage of people willing to go. Workers who do often leave early are pushed out by unreliable funding, medical emergencies, and extreme isolation.”
The Last Mile Harvest Missions Foundation (LMHMF), according to the statement, was created to close that gap. Its launch on November 7 will mark the beginning of an international, faith-based platform that sustains frontline workers serving Unengaged Unreached People Groups (UUPGs) globally.
Rather than relying on one-off grants, LMHMF targets the three pressures most often behind a missionary’s departure: financial insecurity, medical emergencies, and the cost of educating their children.
“When a family moves into a roadless, off-grid territory to serve an unreached community, their greatest risk isn’t just the terrain. It’s being forgotten,” the statement said.
The foundation is poised to build lasting support systems, covering living stipends, health safety nets, and operational logistics, so field teams can stay focused on the work of the Great Commission”.
LMHMF will engage in resource mobilization through transparent, cross-border channels linking donors to verified frontier ministries.
Key initiatives include:
Regular monthly living allowances and emergency healthcare coverage. Cross-cultural and theological preparation, alongside security awareness for hostile environments. and a dedicated fund for tuition, learning materials, and family care for missionary families in the field.
Missionaries and the communities they serve will also have access to solar-powered boreholes for clean water, mobile medical outreaches, and adult literacy centers.
To aid its operations, the foundation will utilize real-time research, ethnographic mapping, and GIS tracking to prevent duplicated efforts and inform overall strategy.
Governance and Partnerships
Adegoke who is the chair of the National Missions Council (NMC) of the African Christian Fellowship (ACF) USA stated that LMHMF operates in compliance with the legal requirements of both North America and West Africa. “It keeps administrative costs low and directs the bulk of its resources to field retention and church-planting milestones,” he said.
The foundation is inviting international organizations, including diaspora networks to join in sponsoring frontier workers and sharing field intelligence.
