CARE TEAM VOLUNTEERS

What are Care Teams?

Care Teams consist of 5-8 volunteer families or individuals willing to come alongside an assigned family during their cancer fight to provide support and encouragement. Care Teams support families living through childhood cancer beyond retreats in their everyday life. It is an opportunity for church partners, small groups, mission teams, and individuals to serve together while building community. 

An Opportunity for You

Families living through childhood cancer often do not have support as they walk through this dark journey. At Lighthouse, we want to help these families find support. The Community of Care program focuses on serving the entire family - the child on treatment, siblings, and parents. It is designed to allow you to be the hands and feet of Jesus through service in the midst of your busy schedule with ease.

Making a Difference Through:

  • Supporting and impacting a family living through childhood cancer. 

  • Igniting a heart of service in you and your family.

  • Building a community and connection with others.

  • Sharing the love of Christ through service

Thank you for letting us be part of this. Amazing to think that God orchestrated that we would experience Lighthouse and that it's mission be so locked into our hearts. So thankful and blessed!

Being a part of a care team has been the best experience for my women's small group. We love caring for the family we get to serve!

Our children loved picking out snacks, candy, and games to put in a care package for our Care Family.

As a dad, I am so thankful that we get to serve in this way as a family. Cooking meals, praying together, and being there for another family is such a blessing!
