Fifty years of service to youth and families. This is a significant milestone for Lighthouse. Together, we are creating a community where every young person has the opportunity to thrive.

Lighthouse is the lead agency for KEYS, a community effort to create an innovative system that ensures all young people ages 18-24 have access to safe, affordable, and stable housing.

"Recognizing the importance for all youth to have a safe place to call home, we are excited that the KEYS project will not only help local youth experience this security, but it will also track the effectiveness of the various strategies being employed, to further enhance the success of this community-wide effort," said Clayt Daley, President of the Daley Family Foundation.

Arianna Jones was 17 years old and about to start her senior year when she became homeless. “I was kicked out of the house,” she said, her eyes welling with tears. “I didn’t really have so much support there, except for one person.” Now Jones is using that experience to try to help others. She’s part of the team behind a plan called KEYS to a Future Without Homelessness.

"We are seated in a huddle room at Lighthouse Youth & Family Services, a partner agency to the Freestore Foodbank. It is the day before Thanksgiving and unlike the rest of the world, the atmosphere inside the building is strangely tense. "

Each New Year brings about new resolutions for everyone. Some choose to make a change in their own lives, while others vow to make a difference within their community. You can accomplish both by resolving to volunteer more in 2019.

Your year-end gift will help Lighthouse be there for kids who are homeless, alone, and have nowhere to turn.
