The Street Outreach team looks for teens who are living on the streets by visiting areas where they congregate. Once they find the teens, they are given personal care items and snacks.
Lighthouse needs your help packing supply bags for the youth living on the streets.
Items requested for the personal care item bags are: body wash, conditioner, deodorant, toothpaste, toothbrush, and a washcloth. These items can be placed in a one-gallon bag and delivered to Lighthouse.
The items requested for the snack bags are: granola bars, peanut butter crackers, water, applesauce or pudding (please include a spoon), protein bars and other shelf stable (non-perishable) food items. These items can be placed in a one-gallon bag and delivered to Lighthouse.
