FAQs
Lights of Hope is an annual fundraising event hosted by Plymouth South Marketing. Luminary bags are displayed along the pathways of a beautiful landmark in downtown Plymouth: the Plimoth Grist Mill. Each bag is personalized by people in the community with written messages of love, support, and remembrance. All funds raised from bag sales and separate donations are donated to Beth Israel Deaconess Cancer Center.
The event dates back to 2011 when former student, Jon Jaros, proposed the idea to raise money for BID in support of his grandmother who lost her life to cancer. In 2015, Jon Jaros sadly passed away in a car accident.His brother, Jake Jaros, was a PSHS marketing student at the time. To honor his brother and grandmother, Jake and some classmates continued the tradition. The event was then expanded to honor more than just those who have passed from cancer. Jon Jaros continues to be honored to this day.
Every Wednesday in November from 6-9pm at the Plymouth Sweet Frog Location to support Lights of Hope! All money raised will benefit the Cancer Center at Beth Israel Deaconess Hospital. 10% of all in store and online orders are included.
