Cleft Lip & Palate Support

Light A Lamp works closely with the Providence Maxillofacial Program associated with Sacred Heart Children’s Hospital.

Serving Families

Light A Lamp serves families of children born with craniofacial conditions, i.e. cleft lip and/or cleft palate, in the following ways:

• Provide “Welcome New Baby” custom gift baskets
• Make sure families in need of specialty bottle feeding kits have them
• Host Family Connection Meetings and events - families receive a T-shirt at their first Family Connection Meeting
• Welcome gift packs for children when visiting the Review Board to see doctors

Family Connection Events

We have a Family Picnic in July, during Cleft Lip and Palate Awareness month.

Throughout the year, we have support meetings, which are a great time for families to connect with each other.  We coordinate with the Maxillofacial Group and have medical professionals speak when possible.
