A Message From Emily Abboud

Hi!! My name is Emily Abboud and I’m a part of the Youth advisory board at Little Lighthouse. You may have heard joyful stories about Little Lighthouse from friends, families, and etc but I wanted to share my own personal experience and how it has impacted me. A couple of weeks ago, I volunteered in a classroom. As soon as I walked in, cheerful faces met me. These sweet kids are so joyous to be around. To their laughter during splash pad, to snack time they carry smiles everywhere they go. Little lighthouse belives that every life has value and purpose, and they’re dedicated to breaking down barriers these children face in education. They provide incredible resources and training that impact communities worldwide. I am blessed to see Christ actively working throughout this place. Faith and community bring this amazing place to life and you can share a piece of that joy. I’m asking you to consider your donation, no matter what size. Together we can show that a diagnosis does not define a child’s potential!!!

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. 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 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.
