Welcome Home Party
Please join us to celebrate the opening of the LightHouse Women and Children’s Center!
Monday, May 22nd 2023, 5-8pm
Tickets: $125 per person
We will be serving mocktails, hors d’oeuvres, and a full dessert bar. Floral workshops will be offered to create a beautiful flower arrangement for yourself or to leave for a future guest of the LightHouse. Tours of the Center will be provided throughout the evening.
We are making great progress on the construction of our new LightHouse Women & Children’s Center! The transformation of our 25,000 square foot thrift store into 43 residential rooms, each equipped with private restroom facilities will allow us to provide homeless women and children with food, shelter, and access to essential services and support programs.
A gift of any amount can help fund the operations of LightHouse.
Please consider a ROOM SPONSORSHIP to help us with the cost of furnishing our new guest rooms after they are built.
A named room sponsorship is $25,000 and you will receive a plaque outside the door of a LightHouse room with three lines of text to personalize. This sponsorship amount can be divided by up to 5 years, if requested by the donor.
To donate by check, please make the check payable to Hope Rescue Mission and put LightHouse in the Memo line.
Mail your check to:

WHERE HOPE SHINES
Joyce, who has been living out of her car for years, shares what it would be like to have a place like LightHouse available.
According to HUD statistics for Berks County, from September 2018-September 2019, a total of 1,403 women and 894 Children (ages 0-17) needed shelter services.
"A Shelter for women and children is vitally needed in our community. Our organization constantly receives phone calls from single mothers with nowhere to go when current shelters are full"
- Employee at Berks Coalition to End Homelessness.
