Our Linen Reclamation Program is a traansformative workforce training initiative that gives new purpose to discarded hotel linens. By repurposing these materials into high-quality cleaning rags for custodial use, the program not only reduces waste, but also provides a sustainable, hands-on learning opportunity for individuals entering the workforce for the first time.

Participaqnts gain essential job skills, such as time management, attention to detail, and teamwork, while taking meaningful steps toward independence. Designed to empower refugees and displaced individuals, this initiative is more than just a job. Its a chance to rebuild lives, support the environment, and create a brighter, more sustainable future.

Please email info@lighthousecharities.net for a tour and introduction to Lighhouse Charities.
