The Coney
Island Lighthouse Mission is dedicated to fighting hunger and poverty in
our community through the many services we provide to those in need. For
those families in need of food, we distribute free grocery bags two days a
week and serve hot meals to the public every Friday. Our after-school
program began in 2007 and provides homework assistance and tutoring, hot
snacks, games, art projects, and bible study for students aged 5-13
Monday-Friday. We are open five days a week to receive new clients,
provide information, and make appointments for free benefits screening
with a social worker on-site. In addition, the Lighthouse Mission
conducts special holiday outreach programs such as distributing hundreds
of Thanksgiving turkeys in the community.
Our
mission is to meet the immediate needs of our clients while offering
additional, necessary services to help move families toward
self-sufficiency. We provide ESL and GED training, drug and alcohol
counseling, housing for several formerly homeless clients, job readiness
training, and information on public benefits to reduce the dependence on
emergency food. We want to be known as the place to go for anyone in need
in our community!
