The Foundation Thrift Store
The Foundation Thrift Store will serve not only to help raise funds for
use with the Lighthouse, but also to provide a location where the resi-
dents of The Lighthouse can fulfill their obligations for volunteer work and community ser-
vice as a part of the expectations of The Lighthouse program. Each resident will be required
to volunteer for a minimum of 2 hours a week, depending on the current use of their time.
Donations for the thrift store come from the community and our benefactors.
