What a blessing!
Recently the Rusk County Lighthouse Shelters received a grant from the Larry and Shirley Dukerschein Donor Advised Fund with the Rusk County Community Foundation. The Lighthouse does not get funding from the county or city. We rely on donations and grants like this to continue to help the homeless in our county. We will be sure to put this grant to good use!

Donations needed
When clients come into the shelter, they often come with nothing more than some clothes and a few personal items. When they transition to permanent housing we do our best to set them up for success by helping them obtain basic household items. In order to do this we rely on donations. Currently, the shelters are in desperate need of mattress sets (twin or full) and dressers. If you have a gently used mattress set or dresser that you would be willing to donate please call our shelter manager, Denise, at 715-415-9008. We appreciate all that our community does to help us help others. Thank you!
