A Message From Hannah Linsenmeyer

Recently, at Little Light House, a little boy celebrated his birthday. His teachers hosted a party, sang “Happy Birthday,” and gave each child a delicious cupcake! However, after studying the cupcake for a while, this precious birthday boy refused to eat his cupcake. He was not interested in eating the cupcake despite all the fixings. But guess what… today you can take part in something even better than a delicious and fulfilling cupcake. You now have the opportunity to be a gift to everyone at Little Light House. Little Light House (LLH) is a Christian Developmental Center for children with special needs from birth to six years old! This special school is tuition free for all families and does not receive any government funding. Because of this, LLH relies on donations from individuals and organizations to provide the best therapies and care for the students. I have been an LLH volunteer for the past 2 years. Volunteering at Little Light House is consistently a highlight! LLH has shaped how I view people, the world, and myself. Before volunteering, I could only see the “differences” of the children. Now, I see children with contagious joy, unique gifts, individual attitudes, and playful personalities. Further, everyone is unique and brings a special contribution to the world. I have also realized that I can make a difference in the lives of others. By giving my time and energy, I can help someone else’s day go better. By working alongside the LLH Youth Advisory Board, I can be a part of raising money for purposes much greater than myself. Currently, I am serving on the Little Light House Youth Advisory Board. The Youth Advisory Board is composed of high school students who are passionate about supporting Little Light House. One role of the Youth Advisory Board is to put on a fundraising event to support the LLH! This year we can plan and orchestrate an in-person fundraising event: “Fall Fest.” To be held on Thursday, October 26th, at the Little Light House, this event will celebrate the amazing students of the Little Light House! There will be a plethora of activities for the kids and official LLH artwork to be auctioned. Our goal is to raise $30,000 for these amazing children! Don’t miss out on this amazing cupcake of an opportunity. Please join me in giving toward the fabulous efforts of Little Light House. Your financial gift will make a difference!

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.
