About Us

Tu Luong Medical Mission Foundation, also known as Tu Luong Foundation (TLF), is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization based in Seattle, Washington. TLF was established in 1992 by Tan Lam in honor of his parents, Tu and Luong.

Our original mission was to organize teams of healthcare professionals, students, and volunteers to travel and provide free medical services to Vietnamese refugees in Southeast Asia. When the last refugee camp closed, TLF was reincorporated in Washington State to support medical missions and Mini Medical School programs.
