Raffles & Auctions

The LIGHT Foun­da­tion relies on donat­ed goods and ser­vices to sup­port the auc­tions and raf­fles that form the back­bone of our fundrais­ing activ­i­ties, and we’ve had every­thing from gift cards to a sporty four-wheel­er to this fan­tas­tic pick­up truck.

Community Outreach

We’ve pro­vid­ed Thanks­giv­ing din­ners and Christ­mas gifts for locals in need; donat­ed school sup­plies and play­ground equip­ment; assist­ed with med­ical bills and funer­al expens­es; replaced an elder­ly wom­an’s roof; and more.

Golf for Good

Host­ed at the White Plains Golf Course, this local tour­na­ment gives play­ers a chance to come togeth­er for a round of golf and sup­port a great cause. Lunch, raf­fles, con­tests, and a ball drop round out a reward­ing day at the golf course.

Brightening Our Community

The LIGHT Foun­da­tion rais­es funds through two major annu­al fundrais­ers (an auc­tion and golf tour­na­ment), and we count on small­er mon­e­tary dona­tions along with goods and ser­vices through­out the year. We’re mak­ing an impact on our com­mu­ni­ty at all lev­els – from up close and per­son­al to small fund­ing efforts to larg­er char­i­ta­ble under­tak­ings – and we would love to get you involved in our efforts.
