Education Program...

 

 

Of the three pillars of lighthouse preservation – restoration, education and fundraising, educating the present generation on the value of lighthouse preservation and cultivating future keepers of the lights amongst our youth is quite possibly the most daunting challenge of all. Education doesn’t simply mean facilitating learning programs about lighthouses and preservation or being “seen” at community events, it also includes “telling our lighthouse story” time and again throughout every aspect of the organization’s outreach. By doing so, we dramatically increase the success of our critical monies to fund lighthouse restoration.

 

The American Lighthouse Foundation is focusing on these diverse aspects of lighthouse education by creating initiatives that address:

 

♦  Community education and outreach that impacts the coastal regions where lighthouses reside and are deemed important to the heritage of community

♦  Lighthouse tours that make available these historic treasures for public visitation and one-of-a-kind learning experiences

♦  “Kids on the Beam” publication that integrates lighthouses within student curriculum so that our youth of today gain an understanding and appreciation of our lighthouse heritage and eventually become involved in the preservation of these historic icons

♦  Museum of Lighthouse History that makes learning about lighthouses both fascinating and fun for the entire family

♦  The American Lighthouse Foundation’s newsletter Tower Notes and the organization’s web site are tools that provide in-depth and timely insights to the challenges, successes and opportunities that participation in lighthouse preservation affords

 

By standing on the principals of education, together we ensure that the community’s investment in lighthouse preservation will only grow stronger and more meaningful as the future continues to unfold before us. Join the American Lighthouse Foundation as a supporter of this all-important endeavor to teach others what we already have come to learn and cherish – that being the rewards of “keeping the lights shining” now and always!
