Description

To Our Community Friends,
We have all been affected in some way by the addiction epidemic that is ravishing our community. Overdose deaths are up over 500% since 1999! The time to do something is now and your help is vital in the fight to save our community. Because of your continued support, The Lighthouse can stand in the gap to help those in our community who struggle with life altering addictions. Your gift provides addiction programming, transitional living homes, and a thriving mentorship program…together we are making a difference!
We need your support more than every right now. The Lighthouse is holding a fundraising silent auction the week of June 20th through the 26th. The goal is to raise funds to support our addiction programming and transitional living homes. Can you help us reach our goal of $25,000?
Would you kindly consider assisting us with a donation package for our silent auction? Your partnership will go a long way in helping us reach our goal and reach those who are struggling in our community.
Recently, I was approached by Brad after the death of his mother. He shared with me how much our work had changed her life. In her last days she was sharing with her family and friends the things that had the greatest impact on her life. She named two main things, her church and The Lighthouse! Her son told me, “If it wasn’t for your work, we would have lost mom a long time ago to her drinking.” With tears in his eyes, he shared how much she had changed for the positive, even to the point of wanting to give back herself. It is always touching to hear how your support of our ministry is changing people.
The Lighthouse is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization (#47-2109588) and can provide a tax-exempt letter of donation upon request. Thank you for your consideration, we could not do what we are doing without community partners like you, and for that we are grateful!

With Much Thanks,
Brandon Bower
Founder and Director
