The Birthday Beacon Program
Lighthouse's Birthday Beacon Program allows any child the chance to experience a fun, memorable party. Lighthouse has a legacy of giving back through its Beacon Fund, and the Birthday Beacon program is our latest effort. The simple act of having a birthday party, something most take for granted, can bring both immediate joy and lasting change, and Lighthouse wants every child in this community to experience that.
Essential elements
Who
Children ages 6-10 in the Bismarck-Mandan community
How
Anyone can nominate a child, with nominations regularly reviewed by Lighthouse. If chosen, the recipient’s family can select among the birthday party locations/packages. Once a selection is made, Lighthouse issues a gift card to the family for that location, which covers the cost of the party.
Lighthouse is seeking partners like Bismarck Public Schools that work with children and are well-positioned to nominate deserving individuals.
