Our Needs

Listed below are some of the consumable items that are currently needed by the Women and Children living at The Lighthouse. You will notice that none of these are extravagant wishes, merely normal household items that you and I may take for granted. If we all put a couple of extra items in our grocery cart each week, the assistance to our residents would be tremendous. Please remember them the next time you do your shopping.

Wal-Mart Gift Cards for new residents who need emergency supplies and/or food are especially helpful.

We will also receive donations of clean slightly used furniture for residents who are moving from the shelter into their own homes. A tax receipt for donated items will be provided for income tax purposes if requested.
