A Message From Jonathan Hinkle

We are so excited for this upcoming year! It will be Jonathan’s second and FINAL year at the Little Light House. His first year was constantly interrupted because of the pandemic, seizures, and very frequent hospital stays. Through all of that, he pushed through and grew tremendously. He got glasses, got more comfortable with messy play, socialized with other kids, and learned how to be a little more gentle with everyone and everything around him. The LLH staff does SUCH a great job at getting to know each individual child and their very particular needs, this is why Jonathan has done so well! Zack and I had the pleasure of sitting in the classroom one morning during their circle time and watching how they include every single child in the classroom and how they individualize their learning without leaving them out. It was so reassuring and we feel so lucky to have one more year of passionate, caring, and loving people teaching our son. Jonathan receives physical, occupational, speech, and even feeding therapy in a group setting in his classroom so that he can watch his peers and feel motivated to do what they are doing! LLH provides all of these services (plus all of the love and attention) tuition free! Mini-Laps is a celebration of all of the students’ milestones, and also a great way for us to raise money for the school so they can keep providing fantastic education for the students to help them go even further! It is such an amazing organization and we could not be more grateful for all of the things they have done for Jonathan and our family. We also feel so much love and gratitude for all of our friends and family that helped us with this fundraiser last year! Thank you for supporting our little boy!

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.
