Please help me reach my personal goal!

How you can help...

I hope you're doing great! This year, all of us involved in the Omega Lamplighters Mentor Group are working hard to make our year unforgettable, and I need your help. Each of us was asked to set up a personal fundraising page to share with friends and family, and I hope you don’t mind that I'm reaching out to you!

My goal is to raise at least $500 to help cover this year's expenses, which will hopefully offset some of the costs we’ll incur as the year progresses. You can check out a message from Kimberly Smith below to see exactly how your donation will be used. Rest assured, all the funds raised will go directly to support our group, and I’ll get credit toward my personal goal. Any donation, no matter the size, will make a big difference. I’ll keep you updated on our progress and can’t wait to share all the highlights from our year with you.

Thanks so much for your support!

A Message from Omega Lamplighters Columbus, GA...

About Us

Columbus GA Lamplighters: Illuminating Our Community
The Columbus GA Lamplighters have dedicated themselves to serving and uplifting our community through various initiatives and acts of kindness. Led by the visionary leadership of Mr. Joshua Jackson, President of the Omega Lamplighters of Columbus, GA, our group embodies the spirit of servant leadership and community service.
For the past three years, we have proudly participated in the Davis Broadcasting Inc. Christmas Toy Giveaway, bringing joy to needy families in Columbus. This year, faced with the prospect of missing the event due to a previously scheduled out-of-town commitment, Mr. Jackson declared, "There has to be something we can do." Driven by his unwavering commitment, our young men sacrificed their evening after a tough day of classes to wrap, sort, and organize toys, ensuring the holiday spirit reached every child in need.

Our Impact

Davis Broadcasting Inc. Christmas Toy Giveaway: For three consecutive years, we've participated in this heartwarming event, spreading holiday cheer to countless families.
Back-to-School Supplies Drive: On a personal milestone, our team came together to purchase school supplies and groceries for the elderly and disabled residents of E. E. Farley Homes. This initiative, which included the donation of books from The Literacy Alliance, positively impacted over 150 families.
Literacy Promotion: Partnering with The Literacy Alliance, we delivered books to elementary students at E.E. Farley Homes, encouraging reading and education.

Our Lamplighters:  Academic Scholars, Star Athletes, and Role Models

Our young men are not only active participants in community service but also excel academically, athletically, and as role models. They are academic scholars, star athletes, and positive influences in their schools and communities, demonstrating the values of hard work, dedication, and leadership.

Support Our Mission

Please join in and support these outstanding young men by donating to help raise funds for their annual Educational Excursion the summer of 2025. Last year, they were able to go to Tampa, Florida, and had an amazing experience!
With the money donated, these exceptional young men can continue their valuable work in the community and attend the Lamplighters Youth Leadership Conference in Houston, Texas. Your generous contributions will help us extend our reach, impact more lives, and provide our members with the opportunities they need to grow as leaders and individuals.

Our Mission

Our mission is to work with and establish productive relationships with young men and equip them with high leadership and academic skills. We offer support, mentorship, and guidance while assisting them in their transformation into manhood.

Community Acknowledgements

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to GOD, our parents, the Omega Lamplighters, and the Men of the Lambda Iota Chapter of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity for their continuous support and mentorship. Special thanks to Ms. Brandy Tolbert, Director of The Literacy Alliance, for her generous book donations, and to LT Shauntrice Murphy for ensuring our safety during our community service events.

Thank you to all who have supported us during the Tri-City Veterans Day Parade and the Fountain City Classic. Your support enables us to make a lasting positive impact on our community, one act of kindness at a time.
