Light Foundation is a non-profit organization based in Greenville, Ohio, established in 2001 by Matt and Susie Light. The foundation uses outdoor programs to support at-risk youth, offering leadership development through an outdoor camp and a long-term mentorship model that tracks participants beyond the program to help them stay on course. Its activities center on Chenoweth Trails, a multi-hundred-acre site developed to host Camp Vohokase and related onsite programs, with additional efforts including scholarship support for student leaders in Ohio and New England. The organization forms partnerships with other nonprofits to extend its impact and pursues community-focused initiatives through hands-on activities such as improvement projects and inclusive outreach. It operates within the non-profit sector, emphasizing outdoor education, personal development, and mentorship as core value pillars, and maintains a presence in the Ohio region while engaging with national participants through its leadership programs.
