Happy Monday! 🥰☀️
This family moved from a shelter into their own apartment last week! We appreciate University homeless women center for sharing this picture with us.

We got to play a small part by providing a brand new refrigerator to this family.
Thanks to the kind & generous donation of two new refrigerators to us from our friends at Altura Credit Union for our new Furniture/Appliance program. The refrigerators came from

Many people moving from unhoused to housed need refrigerators in their new apartments, as most apartments don't come with that appliance. Oftentimes people have to live with getting ice everyday & putting it in a bucket or a cooler in order to keep their food cold. As you can imagine, that isn't a sustainable way of living.

If you have a good working refrigerator (apartment sized) that you want to donate to us, your donation is tax deductible & would help families in need in the Inland Empire. 🙏❤
Our goal is to help people get back on their feet & become self-sufficient. Your donations make that possible!

We are excited to invite you this Friday to our Free Hot Meal* Friday (* for unhoused guests only) and lots of Giveaways at your local Riverside Food Pantry: Lighthouse of Hope Foundation Inc. We know that all families who come out tomorrow will be blessed by what will be given out. It would greatly help to bring a wagon or cart to transport your items to the car. Please share the flyer with your friends, family, and neighbors in need, regardless of their home city. Registration is done onsite and super simple, with no extra documents needed.

As a reminder, this Saturday is our Saturday Community Food Distribution, held every third Saturday of the month. This month of April is our Appreciation month, as we are celebrating our CEO's Donna Sautia four years of growing Lighthouse into the success you see today and continuing.🙌💕👏🎉

We hope to see you all there!

We completed our first Life Skills class of 2024 yesterday with the City of Riverside, CA - City Government housing clients. Classes are held at a community center in Riverside. Guest speakers included Health & Exercise Science students from La Sierra University. The students taught about the importance of personal hygiene & wellness. Clients also received great tips on the best ways to keep their apartments cleaned & well organized by Ifeanyi White of Executive Level Cleaning Services. And don't forget your teeth! Dental hygiene benefits & techniques for a perfect smile was shared by a nonprofit dental office. Smile Unto Him offers low-income people free dental work from Dentists & staff who volunteer their time. How amazing is that?❤

Classes will continue every Wed. until the end of May. We'll cover a variety of topics to help people integrate back into society & work on becoming self-sufficient.

👉Please keep our class & clients in prayer, as sometimes there is a fear of attending something new. 🙏❤

Super excited to share we've partnered with The Life Church to offer a 4-week Bible study class at Path of Life Ministries Emergency Cold Weather Shelter!
Such an amazing opportunity.🙏🏽
Minister Rosita from The Life Church prepares a scripture & discussion topic for the shelter guests each week.
We set up at a table & invite the guests to join if they'd like to. Some say yes, some say no. Everyone is welcome. We've been able to pray with people & our goal is to help pour out God's hope, love & encouragement into each person. We bring devotionals & of course a yummy snack each week as well.😉
It's a blessing to get to know the shelter guests & just remind them how much our Father in Heaven loves them & that they matter.
