Last year with your support, LLF was able to raise thousands of dollars for children of South Florida with educational, financial, and medical hardships. In 2012, LLF had key achievements of:

  • providing over 1,000 books to local facilities
  • serving 100 families Thanksgiving meals
  • offering a youth fitness clinic to summer school programs
  • distributing 24 catered meals to the families of the Ronald McDonald House
  • donating 400+ holiday toys to the Chapman Partnership
  • Funded its 1st annual “Day at the Park”, bringing the Overtown Youth Center to the Miami Seaquarium

 

We look forward to surpassing these achievements in 2013 with your help.

2013 brings new volunteer opportunity with the Little Lighthouse Foundation! All of LLF’s success is impossible without the help of our generous Chapter Leaders, who donate their time to a greater good. Each CL is asked to manage one volunteer event per month, which incorporates from 4-8 volunteers, depending on the program.

All of our programs involve helping young children in the South Florida area, who struggle with educational, physical, and medical hardships. If you have a suggested facility that LLF can begin to volunteer at, we openly accept suggestions.

For more information, please email info@thelittlelighthouse.org.
