2nd Mile Missions is a small education-focused nonprofit based in Winona Lake, Indiana, founded in 2006. Its work centers on disrupting the cycle of poverty in the Dominican Republic by delivering education, nutrition, and spiritual enrichment to children through the 2nd Mile Education Center, Hope Academy, and the House of Hope in Bavaro. The organization serves Dominican and Haitian children, with programs spanning pre-K through grade 12 at the education center and a residential program for twelve girls at the House of Hope, all within a community where access to schooling is limited for impoverished families. The aim is to provide a stable, faith-informed educational environment that supports learning, family restoration, and personal development, funded in part through a sponsorship network and ongoing donor-supported initiatives. A recent development cited is the launch of a monthly recurring donation program to support its ongoing activities.
