There is a story about a woman walking alone down a long, dark road on a stormy night. In her hand she carried only a small lantern.
A passerby looked into the darkness and asked, “Why carry such a tiny lantern? It can’t possibly light the entire road.” The woman smiled and replied, “It doesn’t need to light the entire road. It only needs to light the next step.”
At Cece’s Hope Center, we witness this story every day. A woman takes the courageous step of asking for help. A donor lights the next step through generous giving. A volunteer lights the next step by offering their time. A business partner lights the next step by creating opportunities.
This year’s 7th Annual Night of Light Gala celebrates a simple but powerful truth: lasting change happens one step at a time. Join us for an unforgettable evening, because when each of us lights the next step, together we illuminate the path home.
