how we started

Wellness House was founded in 1990 with a mission to improve the lives of people who have been diagnosed with a life altering illness. The organization began with a single purpose: to provide comprehensive support and resources to those affected by cancer, offering a holistic approach to wellness that complements medical treatment. Over the years, Wellness House has expanded its services to include support groups, exercise classes, nutrition seminars, and various wellness programs, all aimed at enhancing the physical, emotional, and psychological well-being of participants.
Today, Wellness House continues to thrive as a vital resource in the Yakima Valley, offering a wide range of programs and services free of charge. The organization has grown to serve thousands of individuals, providing a supportive community where people can connect, learn, and find hope during their illness journey. With a dedicated team of staff, volunteers, and supporters, Wellness House remains committed to its mission of helping individuals and families navigate the challenges of cancer with dignity and resilience.
As Wellness House looks to the future, it remains focused on expanding its reach and impact, ensuring that everyone affected by cancer has access to the support and resources they need to thrive. The organization continues to innovate and adapt its programs to meet the evolving needs of the community, always striving to provide the highest quality of care and support to those it serves.
