Our Story
Battlefield Lighthouse was founded in 2004 to provide practical help, compassionate support, and a visible sign of hope for people facing homelessness, instability, and crisis.
A lighthouse does not stop the storm. It shines through it. Battlefield Lighthouse exists to stand as that beacon for adults seeking safe harbor and a pathway forward.
The Lightkeeper Philosophy
Every employee, volunteer, donor, board member, and partner is a Lightkeeper: someone who protects hope for another person until they are able to carry it themselves.
