The sign on Stacy Harper's storefront office on Sunbridge Drive in Fayetteville says "The Connector" in big, bold lettering -- and what an appropriate title that is. In her 11 years of community work, Harper -- the founder of the nonprofit Lighthouse Solutions -- has become proficient at meeting clients where they're at and connecting them with the resources they need to better their lives.

​

"We're bridging the gap between resources and the community," says Harper. "This area is resource-rich. But a lot of our people in Northwest Arkansas, Fayetteville, the state, don't know how to navigate the system to get to those resources. And so they get frustrated, and they tire out, mentally and emotionally. That's where I come in leading Light House Solutions. We can be that liaison. So I'm out here, and I'm listening to stories and listening to people's needs, wants, and desires, and I'm helping them navigate to the right resource."

​

Stacy Harper is an accomplished business owner, community leader, certified children’s fitness coach, writer/poet, actress, motivational speaker and youth advocate. She is single mother raising her 14 year old daughter. Ms. Harper’s motivation is helping children uncover their true genius by removing fear, anxiety, judgement and shame, something she struggled with as a child and young adulthood.

​

Since 2011, Stacy has been a social artist in GA, MD, VA and Washington DC using her nonprofit, Light House Solutions as way to tell her life story. Harper says, "When I'm listening to conversations from children, individuals, family members that are in need of some type of support, I do whatever I can to bridge that gap. We are on the street every day, and I think that's what keeps me going, to not give up in my battle of breast Cancer. Every day that I wake up, God is saying, 'It's your world --

what are you going to do with it today?'"

of children, youth and teens.
