BE A VOICE
Education is an important part of combatting human trafficking. Many people are not aware of the issue or how it can significantly affect the lives of victims. By informing your family and friends about human trafficking and letting them know about Lighthouse for Life, you can start making a difference today. One of the ways you can help is by using social media to get the word out about this important issue. Though it may not seem like a big responsibility, sharing facts and statistics about human trafficking can help raise awareness within your own community and encourage others to get involved. Please take advantage of our Human Trafficking FAQs and other Resources. Be a voice – make a difference.
REQUEST A SPEAKER
As part of our dedication to education, we would love the opportunity to come discuss the impact of human trafficking in our communities
as well as the mission of Lighthouse for Life. By inviting a Lighthouse for Life team
VOLUNTEER
Become a volunteer with Lighthouse for Life. Your various gifts and talents help greatly to meet our various needs and there are many different way you can get involved!
- Helping in Our Office: On Thursdays from 9:30 - 11:30am, volunteers come in to help with things like preparing resources to pass out, stuffing envelopes, printing information, rolling and tagging T-shirts, and any other administrative needs that might arise.
- Picking Up & Delivering Freedom Bags or Other Resources: Our Freedom Bag ministry helps victims through law enforcement and agencies like Victim Advocates who have direct contact with the victims. However, we always need help gathering the bags from those who make them as well as delivering them to the correct locations. Sometimes we also need volunteers to pick up items from printers or various companies and bring them to the office.
- Helping at Awareness Events: When we speak at different places, there are often needs that come with these events including providing food or baked goods, helping set up and clean up, managing our information table (you don't have to be able to answer any questions about human trafficking), helping to sell T-shirts, etc.
- Helping with Fundraising Events: From time to time, we have fundraising events where we need people to help with preparation, set up, clean up, organization, managing a table for us, etc.
- Graphic Design: If you are good with graphic design, please let us know! We appreciate help with designing flyers, brochures, and other print material for various events.
- Karis Home: Soon, we'll be looking for help with our residents in our Safe House program. Due to the safety and security of this program we cannot bring very many on board in this area and those that we do invite will need to go through an application/background check/training process beforehand. Help may include assistance with education needs, teaching life skills, being a mentor, etc.
Have an idea for an event or fundraiser? Please let us know! Many of our events come about because someone in the community has an idea and lets us know about it (holiday market, jewelry party, paint and pour, basketball camp, etc.). If you have an idea, we'd love to hear it!
Contact us today and let us know which ways you're interested in volunteering!
