Giving Opportunities

Lights for Life

Our annual Lights for Life campaign is a celebration of life and gratitude. In it’s 38th year, Lights for Life is an opportunity to honor or remember someone special to you and help build a healthy community at the same time.

Throughout the month of December, your donation will be symbolized by lights on our Lights for Life trees in Ashland, Talent, and Phoenix.

Supporting Our Community

Building Partnerships

Each December, ACHF collects new mittens, gloves, and hats for K-5 students in the Phoenix-Talent and Ashland school districts. The drive runs throughout the month, with collection bins located at the ACHF office, as well as satellite locations in Ashland, Talent, and Phoenix.

“Seeing the joy on the children’s faces as they receive their own pair of mittens warms my heart. It’s a simple gesture, but it reminds them that they are cherished members of our community.” (Tiffanie Lambert, ACHF Board Member)
