Awareness Campaign
Welcome to Lightway Advocacy
In 2025, we’re launching the Lightway Advocacy Model—a movement that empowers individuals to take action in the fight against homelessness. Whether you’re new to advocacy or ready to expand your efforts, Lightway gives you the tools, flexibility, and community to make a lasting impact.
What is Lightway?
We know life is busy, and that’s why Lightway lets you work at your own pace.
No deadlines.
No supervisors.
No pressure—just opportunities to make a difference when and where it fits your life.
Whether you prefer organizing a local event, sharing stories online, or handing out care bags, your efforts can drive meaningful change.
Self-Directed Advocacy
Community Impact
Homelessness is a complex issue, but small, consistent actions can create powerful ripple effects.
Lightway advocates help spread awareness through storytelling, social media, and local initiatives.
By sharing your journey and results, you inspire others to take action and build a stronger support network.
Together, we can light up lives and bring attention to the causes and solutions surrounding homelessness.
