A Message From Jack Swain

As you already know, I'm a very special boy and I go to school at a very special place... The Little Light House! I was on the waiting list to go to this school for over two years! I am beginning my third year now in the Red Class! Most of my friends and I who go to school here have special needs. Some of us are medically fragile, use wheelchairs to move around, are non-verbal, have global developmental delays... and some of my school friends are children of staff who are part of our inclusion program! One thing we all have in common is that when we enter the doors of The Little Light House we are taught that we are all more alike than different and we are in a safe place where we are showered with more powerful love, hope, encouragement and cutting edge resources than we could ever imagine possible! Because of the teachers, assistants, speech pathologists, occupational therapists, physical therapists, assistive technology, nurses and staff who are assigned to the team of every one of us - we thrive. We are so thankful to have LLH in Tulsa and we are humbled by all of the support that our friends and family and community provide so that LLH can keep up with the ($30 THOUSAND DOLLAR per student) cost it requires to keep our special needs met. All of your donations go directly to serving children with special needs and providing them TUITION FREE therapy and educational services. Because of this great cause, all of your donations are tax deductible. If you want a tax credit - talk to my Mom or Dad. There's a pretty simple way you can get 50-75% of your donation back as CREDIT on your taxes! - Jack

In Support of Little Light House

Little Light House is a Christian Developmental Center for Children with Special Needs from birth to 6 years old. Tulsa’s Little Light House is internationally recognized as providing some of the most individualized special education and therapeutic early intervention services in the world. A trans-disciplinary team approach maximizes a comprehensive knowledge from professionals who work collaboratively to design prescriptive programs for each child and assist every child in reaching their maximum potential. Through a variety of programs and schedules, these services are carried out by highly credentialed teachers, therapists, and specialists who represent decades of pediatric experience. Early Intervention classes are provided as a part-time program where caregivers attend and learn along with their child for two-hour classes once a week.

Little Light House is tuition-free for families and does not receive government or United Way funding. Support comes from individuals, organizations, corporations, and foundations. In addition, LLH hosts four annual fundraisers each year bringing in about 40% of the $4.2 million dollar operating cost that allows our staff of over 90 members to provide services to over 300 children and families, support nearly a thousand volunteers, and train over 1,000 college and career students each year.

Little Light House believes that all children are a gift from God with the potential to achieve specific milestones to advance their quality of life. We strive for excellence by utilizing a Bible-based curriculum in a fun and loving atmosphere. We believe in an individualized, trans-disciplinary and God-centered approach to education-an approach that joins parents, professionals, and the Holy Spirit as partners in order to nurture the spirit, mind, and body of the children and their families. Our commitment incorporates being called to work/volunteer with children with special needs. Little Light House encourages a positive outlook on the future, based on trust in a loving heavenly Father.
