Homeless teens inspired by candelight vigil

Through the Candlelight Vigil, Covenant House offers a beacon of hope to homeless kids.

Each November, in cities across the country, our Candlelight Vigils are symbols of the light that everyday citizens can bring to homeless kids to let them know that there are people who care... people who want to help brighten their path for a better future.

For 20 years, the Candlelight Vigil has honored the memories of the kids who never made it off the streets – the kids who died alone and anonymously, without ever knowing there were people who cared.

And now, thanks to our Virtual Candlelight Vigil, you can be a symbol for the thousands of kids still on the streets. Help light the flame that leads kids to Covenant House – and a new start in life.

By lighting a virtual candle for homeless kids right now, you can make a difference.

Or you can go a step further by organizing a community candlelight vigil or hosting a candlelight dinner party in your home to give hope to homeless kids and illuminate their lives.
