A Message From Lila and Cate Owens

Our big sisters are off to big girl school, so it is our time to SHINE! We are raising money for all of our amazing friends at Little Light House in GREEN and YELLOW class! Little Light House provides completely tuition free services to kids with disabilities from birth to age 6. This includes FREE special education, FREE physical therapy, FREE speech therapy, FREE occupational therapy, FREE vision therapy... do you see a trend here? The only way that all of these free services can be provided is because of amazing donors like you. You know the other thing that Little Light House provides for free? Love. To every single person who walks through the door! How cool is it that all of our friends and us are poured into every single day and covered in love. We are part of the Staff Kid Inclusion Program, which basically means that we go to school with all of our amazing friends and learn about love right next to them. Please support our Green and Yellow friends so they can continue to come to school and grow and learn about love! Talk to our mama if you want to learn any more about this awesome place! We LOVE you!

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.
