​Volunteer


The Little Light House is always seeking men, women, and youth who desire to make a difference in the lives of others.
​
We always need volunteers to help in the classroom.  This consists of being able to play on the floor with our kids!  Doesn’t that sound fun?  How long as it been since you had child-like play?  Use your imagination…laugh and know that because of your ability to play, you made a very special kid's day! If you can’t play, then you can work!  We have opportunities available for volunteers in the office.  Answering phones, helping with mailings and various other duties. Our families hear so many things that their children may never do. After all, science can only go so far…and then there’s God. 

​LLH operates in the world of possibilities, where miracles can happen everyday. Not only has God worked to expand this ministry, He has also blessed the work of our teachers and therapists. Since opening, many students have learned to walk, read, identify shapes, number and colors,  and work through significant feeding issues.  Some have transitioned into a preschool for typically developing children, and all are making new friends. The list of accomplishments goes on every day. If you would like to be a part of this important ministry, please volunteer, donate now, or visit our fundraising page to learn the ways your time and contributions can help.

No previous experience is required. All volunteers receive free training and work with the children under the supervision
​ of qualified staff members.
Our hours are 8:15 to 1:15 Monday through Thursday. ​Please check the calendar for the open/close schedule.

Lunchtime Volunteers

Help our children enjoy their lunch! Serve as a lunchtime volunteer and assist our teachers with setup and cleanup after. Lunch is served between 11:00-12:30.

Special Events Volunteers

We have 3 major fundraising events throughout the year as well as Guest Luncheons, holiday parties, and other get-togethers. Volunteers play a vital part by assisting our staff in planning and executing these events!

Reading Volunteers

Are you an animated, energetic and fun-loving individual who enjoys interacting with kids? If so, then the Little Light House is searching for you! Reading volunteers provide our children with a little comic relief during the school day. This is a wonderful opportunity for those who wish to work with our children, but are only available for an hour or so during the day.
Administrative Volunteers

The Little Light House is a very busy place! We need volunteers to help with filing, typing, data entry, phone calls, photocopying and other tasks. This is a great way to gain administrative experience in a friendly office atmosphere.

Classroom Volunteers

The Little Light House is blessed to have volunteers who are willing to give one day a week or more to work with our children under the supervision of qualified staff members. Help our students develop motor skills, reading, writing, self-help skills and achieve other goals.
