Serving The Community

Assisted Living Home deliveries

Every year, Team Light A Lamp visits and brings gifts of encouragement to several assisted living homes during Christmas, Easter, and occasionally other times. Gifts include blankets, socks, battery powered candles, pillowcases, or other items to bring warmth and light into the residents' lives.

We partner with local schools and/or youth groups to give kids the opportunity to take part in these special deliveries. This teaches the younger generation about the joy in volunteer work.

For example, elementary students can write cards and older student groups may assist in making blankets or other gifts.

Lighting Up Lives

Light A Lamp began as a way to recognize "local heroes" - those who serve others and rarely receive a tangible thank you - as well as a means to encourage those who showed inner strength when dealing with hard times. These Recognition Baskets are still one of the ways Light A Lamp "lights up lives with a gift from the heart!"

Our team believes in helping our community wherever there is a need, whether it's serving meals, helping people connect, brightening someone's day with a gift, or helping to prevent suicide by providing encouragement and hope. Where there's a need, we find a way to help!

Student Volunteer Opportunity

Light A Lamp partners with youth groups and/or leadership classes that are interested in taking part in a kindness movement within their school. Our team will visit the class twice to introduce the project and to follow up.

Students hand make items such as notecards or bracelets that are then given out to other students seen doing selfless acts of kindness or to those having a tough day. This is an opportunity to teach the younger generation to show appreciation to others.
