The last weekend in June, Candlelighters Fremont gathered to meet the nonprofit organizations that will receive funding from our efforts this year. It was a day filled with gratitude, smiles and a deep sense of community.
Each year, Candlelighters, a nonprofit volunteer organization, works tirelessly to raise funds through its signature event, the Candlelighters Ghost House. With the support of our volunteers, sponsors and community members, they’re able to give back to groups who are making real change in the Tri-City area.
This year, they will support the following organizations:
• Centerville Presbyterian Church
• S.A.V.E. (Safe Alternatives to Violent Environments)
• Second Chance
• Committee for Restoration of the Mission San Jose
• Viola Blythe Community Service Center of Newark
• Bay Philharmonic and Youth Orchestra
• Azevada Elementary PTA
• Fremont Parents’ Nursery School
• Ohlone College Foundation “MECHA”
Candlelighters is entirely volunteer-driven and always looking for helping hands and kind hearts to join. Learn more at candlelighters.com.
