Happy Birthday to our incredible Board Member, Susan Sandoval! 🎂💛

Today, we celebrate someone whose heart for our community shines through in everything she does. Susan’s dedication to the mission of Ignite the Light of Hope is truly special. So much of the work she does happens behind the scenes, but it never goes unnoticed. ❤️

Her kindness, compassion, generosity, and willingness to always step in and help make a difference mean more to us than words can express. She genuinely cares about the families we serve and pours her heart into helping us continue our mission of bringing food, hope, and support to those who need it most.

Susan, we are so grateful for you, for your beautiful heart, and for everything you do for Ignite and our community. We all love and appreciate you so much!

May this next year bring you the same joy, love, and kindness that you so freely give to others. 💛✨

❤️ 200+ families. Nearly 1,000 people. One day of serving our community.

And the need continues to grow.

As the cost of food, gas, and everyday essentials continues to rise, we are seeing more families turn to us for support. Every week, Ignite the Light of Hope Foundation shows up to serve our community but we can’t do it alone.

🏫 Schools
⛪ Churches
🏢 Businesses
🤝 Community organizations

We’re asking YOU to help us fill the gap by hosting a food drive to support the families we serve.

Every can, every box, and every donation makes a difference. Together, we can be a blessing to our neighbors who need a little extra support during these challenging times. ❤️

Together, we can fight hunger, spread hope, and help our community thrive.
