Vision: Be the Light Foundation is a volunteer organization which fosters the education, outreach and peer support of men and women suffering from eating disorders. By allowing the ED recovered community to share their experience and support by mentoring those who still suffer, strong relationships and network can be created. The primary function of Be the Light Foundation is to foster trusting and interactive relationships between people at different levels and stages in their eating disorder recovery, and allow those trusting relationships to create the path to health.
Mission: “If you can’t see the light at the end of the tunnel, and can’t find someone to guide you towards it, perhaps you need to consider being the light and clearing the path for others”
