At The Light House, our mission is to ease the trauma of foster care by providing a safe, welcoming space where foster and kinship children can heal, grow, and thrive through essential resources, life skills training, creative expression, fitness, and social support.
Donate Today to Support Foster Youth in Denver!
Children in foster care experience so much trauma in their journey through foster care. You can make a difference in their lives. Let’s partner together and see where we can elimnate some of that trauma they are experiencing. Whether The Light House works with them on their first day, teaching them how to handle the emotions they are going through, life skills for when they are aging out or emancipated, or educating parents on new ways to handle their child in foster care, children will not feel alone in this system. Show them that you want them to know that today.
Colorado Gives Day
What if one day of giving could light up a whole year?
On Colorado Gives Day, your gift helps kids and families in foster care heal, grow, and find their footing. It funds emotional regulation classes, support for caregivers, and mentoring for teens. Schedule your gift now or give on December 8th to help us be the light.
The Holiday Store: Donate & Volunteer
What if a child in foster care got to be the one giving the gifts?
At our Holiday Store, kids shop for presents for the people they love. Volunteers help them choose, wrap, and celebrate, and parents get a well-earned treat with nails and massages. Donate gifts or sign up for a volunteer shift to make the season brighter for a family.
Life Skills Workshops: Starting January
What if every teen started adulthood with the skills to thrive?
In January we’re starting a new round of free Life Skills Workshops with Catholic Charities. They’re open to all teens ages 16–21 and cover the real-world skills that help young people stand on their own. Save a spot or join the interest list to hear when dates are set.
