Charities We Support
-
The LIGHT Standard is our framework for choosing partners we can trust and stand behind. Each organization we support is evaluated across five core pillars: Legal compliance, measurable Impact, strong Governance, full Transparency, and long-term Sustainability. This ensures that every dollar entrusted to LIGHT is stewarded with integrity and directed toward charities that are ethical, effective, and committed to lasting change in the lives of children and families.
-
The LIGHT Giving Strategy is focused on creating lasting change by investing in children, families, and community restoration. Rather than one-time donations, we prioritize partnerships with organizations that provide long-term care, family stability, and developmental support. By combining financial stewardship with active service, LIGHT ensures that every contribution is used purposefully to break negative cycles and help build stronger, healthier communities.
-
Every organization we support is carefully reviewed through the LIGHT Standard and evaluated for alignment with our Giving Strategy. We prioritize charities that serve children and families, demonstrate real impact, and invite us into active partnership—not just financial support. This process ensures that our relationships are built on trust, shared values, and a commitment to lasting transformation.

The Circle Ranch
Circle Ranch is a Christ-centered foster care community in North Alabama dedicated to providing a safe, stable, and loving home for children who have experienced trauma, neglect, or abuse. Founded in 2016, Circle Ranch partners with qualified foster families who share a passion for offering unconditional love, guidance, and hope.
Located on a 40-acre property, Circle Ranch provides comfortable housing that allows foster families to live together as blended families of biological, adopted, and foster children. A unique part of our mission is keeping sibling groups together, preserving their bonds and sense of belonging while helping them heal and grow.
Beyond housing, Circle Ranch serves as a hub of support for foster, adoptive, and kinship families through free community events, training, counseling, mentoring, and faith-based encouragement. More than a place to live, Circle Ranch is a family—one built on faith, love, and hope—working together to change the lives of children and families for the better.
