Mission and Program Overview

Mission

Light the Paths vision is to boost morale of those suffering daily from adversity and hardship. We send handmade signs, glow in the dark bracelets, key chains, bookmarks, and necklaces we gift away free in batches to children hospitals, burn centers, rehabilitation centers, military troops overseas, orphanages, etc. These items will hopefully be a daily reminder to the recipients to stay positive and maintain their faith. We include small encouraging cards with each item sent in hopes to bring some light to someone who is dealing with a difficult time in their life.
