The Lighthouse Project will create in Big Bear a child honoring community in which respect for one another, supportive relationships and our community values can be observed and felt throughout our community.

The mission of the Lighthouse Project, a non-profit organization devoted to a proactive culture shift in honor of our community’s children, is to work collaboratively with other agencies, groups, organizations and individuals to create a community in which all members:

• Have a sense of worth and belonging
• Take responsibility for themselves, each other, and all children
• View children as assets, and use the positive language of asset building in personal
  and professional settings
• Are further inspired to achieve excellence in all endeavors

Our commitment to achieve specific, measurable or observable results that maximize the impact and potential of our collaborative partners and individual participants through a well-articulated, widely known and embraced vision and mission for the community.
