*Donate The proceeds from this 5K will be
used to help fund a new sober living home.
The lease on our current property is up and
will not be renewed after 12 years here. This is
forcing us to move to a new, much more
expensive location. We need help from the
community to make this happen! Many of our
residents were homeless or facing
homelessness before finding a place to call
home at Lighthouse. Please help us to
continue this amazing resource in our
community!
*Please be assured that your donations will be put to good work in
stopping addictions. We have had a success rate more than 8 times
the national average and 3 times more successful than the traditional
12-step program. Our process is unique and unquestionably
successful. Healing happens here. People are set free from addictions.
People enter in recovery and leave recovered. Please join us in
helping thousands of people get set free from the chains of addiction

*More about Lighthouse Sober Living
Who We Are: Lighthouse is faith-based sober
living program located at 614 Mathews St,
Fort Collins. Our Mission: To help addicts get
sober for life. Your support is saving lives! This
is what some of our participants have to say
about their experience at Lighthouse:
Lighthouse Resident:
The lighthouse and their staff open a door to
men who have very little options coming from
difficult transitions in life, as well as providing
a foundation where they can be supported,
guided, and be held accountable to becoming
a self-sufficient and stable member of society
again. The home program is simple, organized,
and there is never a shortage of amazing
people to speak with about concerns,
questions, and guidance in all areas. The
lighthouse for me, was definitely nothing
short of a miracle to battle homelessness and
addiction. I am a flourishing man and sober 5
years now in thanks to the Lighthouse and
their staff.
Lighthouse Resident:
The Lighthouse has changed my life. When I
came to the program I was broken and lost.
Through their phase system I have found
myself and learned to help others. This
program helps men with addiction issues
through the word of God.
Lighthouse Resident:
They have done everything possible for me, to
save my life and help me to succeed! I am so
very grateful to God for the love and support
they give to the men. They are very very much
needed, especially in today's society. I LOVE
AND THANK THEM ALL!!!!
Lighthouse Resident:
They are doing a great job in caring for men
seeking to break the cycle of addiction. It is
affordable and it is a safe and supportive
environment. I would love to see them receive
sizable donations so they can continue to
improve the facilities and all aspects of the
program
