FORT WORTH, Texas – Childrens Lighthouse Learning Centers℠, widely recognized as the leading values-based early learning school in the United States, announced today the results from its systemwide school supplies drive in honor of “National Lighthouse Day,” which fell on August 7, 2018. More than 500 donations were made nationwide, including more than 30 new backpacks at one location alone.
Children’s Lighthouse centers across the nation participated in the drive, including locations in Illinois and across Texas. Donations, including pencils, crayons, notebooks, binders and more, were made to local schools in need.
“Our brand is dedicated to giving back to the communities we serve, which is why it was so heartwarming to see our franchisees across the network join in on our efforts to give back – and make such an impact – ahead of the school year,” said Childrens Lighthouse Learning Centers℠ President Michael Brown. “It’s a testament to the high-quality leaders and entrepreneurs we are lucky to call Children’s Lighthouse franchisees.”
The mission of Children’s Lighthouse is to connect families together with independent owners in an effort to enrich communities through a relationship based on safety and trust.

Additionally, franchisees across the network are actively involved with their local communities and regularly give back through volunteering, donations and more.
