A Message From Ally Patterson

Hi, hi to my friends and family! It is that time of year again! Back to School! If you haven’t already heard, I have been on staff at Little Light House for almost 2 years where this August, we are back to school and back launching our Back to School Campaign. Little Light House is much more than a school and our students are much more than their diagnosis! Over 50 years ago, Little Light House was founded to provide services for children with disabilities in the Tulsa area. But God! This vision has grown so much over the recent decades where we are now able to serve children all throughout the state, in campuses in Tulsa and Oklahoma City as well as with our Mobile Classroom! All for FREE! Instead of having to pay for services, children are able to come and attend, receiving services in education and different therapies such as Occupational, Speech, and Physical all TUITION FREE! This is where you can be part of impacting these children too! My job and that of many of my coworkers, allows us to foster deep, personal relationships with our students and their families, by extending a deep love and care for them as we see them for and watch them achieve their full potential beyond any disability. Even if you never get an opportunity to step foot in one of our classrooms, I ask, would you consider donating? My individual staff goal is $2000 in total, but if you’re able to donate, no matter the size of the donation, every single one does have an impact and allows us to continue to provide TUITION FREE services year after year! Will you consider joining me in partnering with, what we call, the Happiest Place on Earth for another school year? Thank 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. 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.
