A Message From Bethany Baumruk

Hi there! My name is Bethany and this is my fundraising page! This is my very first year working for Little Light House and I truly could not be more excited to be apart of such an incredible organization! Little Light House is a nonprofit organization that aims to serve special needs children and their families in a variety of different ways. There are speech pathologists, occupational and physical therapists, teachers, and other specialists on site that work together to provide quality care to each child and their individualized needs. One unique aspect of Little Light House that I admire is that the tuition is completely free to our families. On average, this is saving each family more than $30,000 per year in costs such as therapy appointments and educational services. Since Little Light House does not accept government aid or state funding, it is important that the community knows how appreciated their donations are! I am truly so expectant for this next year and am still in awe that I will get to teach these kiddos everyday! On September 10th, I will be participating in Miles for Milestones which is a 5k that aims to celebrate the goals that our special children reach. If you want to join me in celebrating the milestones that our children achieve, please consider donating towards this upcoming event! Thank you in advance for your generosity and being a part of helping to educate and serve these wonderful kids! If you have any additional questions or are interested in participating in the event yourself as well, feel free to message me! Also, check out our website for more information at www.littlelighthouse.org !

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.
