Give Hope: First Light - The Guiding Light Project

(Expanded across Central Oregon, supporting those houseless or at risk of houselessness)

Imagine facing a night alone—in the high desert, forest, or streets—with no home to return to. For many, a single crisis—job loss, illness, or unexpected bills—can push them into homelessness. The line between stability and survival is razor-thin, especially for low-income families.

First Light confronts this reality head-on. Our team, alongside partners and volunteers, delivers warmth, connection, and resources to Central Oregon’s homeless population. We provide:

• Survival essentials: Kits with blankets, hygiene items, and safety gear.

• Nourishment: Hot meals, snacks, and water.

• Compassionate support: Dignity through listening and guidance.

• Pathways to stability: Help accessing shelters, healthcare, and transportation.

But we need your help. Demand outpaces resources. Your donation directly impacts vulnerable neighbors:

• $25: Food and essentials for one person.

• $50: Hygiene kits promoting health and dignity.

• $100: Fuel outreach van for a week.

• $250: Survival kits for multiple individuals.

Every dollar fosters hope and strengthens Central Oregon. Join us in offering light to those in darkness.
