The Light House rebuilds lives with compassion by providing shelter and services to prevent homelessness and empower people as they transition toward self-sufficiency.

The Light House is a program of Annapolis Area Ministries, Inc. and is supported by the fundraising efforts of the Friends of Light House Shelter, Inc. - both are 501(c)(3) non-profit organizations. We depend on the constant financial support and volunteer contributions from many private citizens, members of the the faith-based community, business partners, and government agencies.

The Light House Shelter

The new Light House houses four separate facilities in one 24,000 sq. ft. green, secure, and cost efficient building:

  • Emergency Shelter – beds for 30 men and 15 women for 90 days as long as they remain employed, remain alcohol & drug free, and work toward self-sufficiency
  • Transitional Housing - family apartments for 5 adults and 20 children
  • Resource and Support Center - offering education, job training, and life-skill services
  • Chronically Homeless Day Center – giving long-term homeless individuals basic human services during daylight hours.


Being homeless can destroy people, tear families apart and wreck communities. Of those homeless clients who work with the Light House program, 75% leave empowered with a job or income, a place to live, and the hope of an independent life. The Light House works!

Now that we are settled into our new home, we need your support now more than ever. With the uncertain economy and high unemployment rates, more individuals and families have been displaced. The Light House's new larger capacity of being able to serve three times as many individuals and families could not have arrived at a more critical time. Please consider making a donation or visit our Current Needs and Volunteer Opportunities pages often for our most up to date needs. Thank you for your continued support!
