Northern Light School is excited to announce our 2nd Annual Holiday Donation Drive in partnership with Homie’s Empowerment. Homie’s Empowerment is a youth and community development organization founded in 2009. They serve over 400 families in the Bay Area and give away over $20K in food every week.

When you read about the history of Northern Light, one thing clearly stands out above the rest: this community develops students who are engaged and empowered – not just as students, but as citizens!

Play ball! Our friend and legendary MLB pitcher, Vida Blue, sits down on The Vida Blue Field of Dreams to discuss his legacy on and off the field. He was known for being the hardest-throwing lefty and first African-American pitcher to start an All-Star game, but what’s even more inspiring than his career is his generosity and desire to give back.

Do you or anyone you know have a car, boat, or RV (running or not) that isn’t being used? Donate it to Cars 2nd Chance to raise money for Northern Light and the greater community!
