A bike can mean getting to work. A tent can mean a safe place to sleep. A can of bug spray can make one more summer night a little more comfortable.

We're currently in need of tents, bikes, and bug spray for our unhoused neighbors.

Thank you for helping us turn compassion into action.

To donate, contact Kim Strange at [email protected] or 218-839-3311.

This isn’t just an award; it represents real lives being changed.

On Monday in Eagan, Lighthouse Beginnings was honored at the Minnesota Alliance of Recovery Community Organizations event, selected from Recovery Community Organizations across all of Minnesota for our peer recovery support services.

That kind of recognition doesn’t come easy.
It reflects consistent, peer-led work, real impact, and a standard of care that’s held across the entire state.

But here’s why it matters to you…

It means what’s being built here is real.
It means people in this community are finding connection, support, and a way forward.
It means hope isn’t just an idea, it’s happening, right here.

Every meal.
Every conversation.
Every person who walked in and chose to keep going.

This belongs to you, too.
