Miami Lighthouse for the Blind (Miami Lighthouse) is a not-for-profit organization, dedicated to providing hope, confidence and independence to blind and visually impaired people of all ages through education, training and research. We transform the lives of over 90,000 blind and visually impaired people annually, from babies to seniors and their families. Our programs impact communities statewide and internationally.
Several hundred years ago, the responsibilities of lighthouse keepers were pretty intense. They lived at the lighthouse and were on call 24 hours a day, seven days a week. They couldn’t take time off, and they had to make sure that the lamp in the tower stayed lit from sunset until sunrise every night.
Today, most lighthouses are electrified and no longer require a resident keeper. Instead, they are maintained by the Coast Guard Aids to Navigation teams who visit periodically. But some lighthouses still have resident keepers — usually in pairs. They do building maintenance, geographic realignment of wayward navigational aids off the coast and technical maintenance on automated systems.
But lighthouses are a special place, and they often attract people who want to live the life that was once theirs. For a small fee, people can become members of the Sable Points Lighthouse Keepers Association (SPLKA) and take part in a two-week resident keeper program at one of their four Michigan lighthouses: Big Sable Point, Little Sable, Ludington North Breakwater Light or White River Light Station.
The job is open to applicants from around the world, but they must have a valid US passport or work visa. They also need to be comfortable with a high degree of isolation and public speaking.
