by Burien-News Staff Writer. Lighthouse NW is a south King County non-profit committed to breaking the cycles of domestic abuse. According to their website, they provide resources, services, and support to families who have experienced abuse. Part of their mission is to activate "the community to participate in prevention and intervention."

RISE: Abuse and Trauma Recovery Program

(Excerpt from their website):

Are you a survivor of abuse or trauma? You are not alone.

Rise is a trauma-informed, holistic approach to healing and building a new life and healthy relationships. Women of all ages participate in Rise and are given the time, space, resources, training, and support necessary to create thriving lives they love.

Matching companies include: BECU, Starbucks, DocuSign, Boeing, United Way, companies that use Benevity.

Lighthouse's current goal is to raise $3,000.

How Your Support Helps

When you give to Lighthouse, you are giving women and children the opportunity to break the cycle of abuse and heal. They can thrive in life, rather than simply survive!

We Were Finally Safe...

Here is a thank you from someone who benefited from "Sacha's House":

My life has changed so much for the better since moving into Sacha’s House! [My daughters and I] arrived with literally the clothes on our backs and had nothing else. We were finally safe.

Within just a few months, [we] were flourishing tremendously. Every day I wake up and thank God for the safety, peace, love, support, comfort, guidance, and stability I experience [at Sacha’s House]. [My daughters and I] have been able to heal and grow and build the life we deserve.
