About Love Lights

For more than 40 holiday seasons, Love Lights has brought the Fort Atkinson community together to honor loved ones and support care that shines year-round.

Since it was first introduced in 1985 by Fort HealthCare Partners, this cherished tradition has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars to support programs that make a direct impact right here in our community.

This year’s Love Lights campaign supports two meaningful Fort HealthCare programs:

CareLine
A personal emergency response service that provides subscribers with 24/7 access to emergency help at the press of a button, allowing individuals to remain independent and safe in their homes.

Unified Healthcare Scholarship Program
Helping local students and professionals pursue or advance their careers in healthcare through educational scholarships.

Every light purchased helps strengthen these programs and ensures compassionate, community-centered care continues to shine.

Honor Someone Special

You can purchase a Love Light in honor of someone special (colored light) or in memory of a loved one (white light).

  • $2 donation per light
  • $5 minimum online donation (includes two lights)
  • $25 or more designates you as a Love Light Tree Sponsor

Donations can be made online or by mail. To be recognized in this year’s donor listing, please submit your gift by December 12, 2025.
