I heard about this non-profit at an event I attended maybe 2 years ago. Anyways, I saw how passionate the founder of the organization was about Anchor Point. I was looking for a charity to consistently donate to in my local community and I scrolled past this one just now and knew it would be the perfect organization to donate to where 100% of donations go towards the foundation. Give and you shall receive.
I had never considered volunteering for anything until God laid upon my heart Anchor Point. It was a year before in 2017, but I also needed a job. I got the job and, although I didn't begin volunteering, it was still on my heart. Open house at my job - and a staff member from Anchor Point was there! Okay God ... After 10 months, I left the job and began full time volunteering at Anchor Point. It was the best thing I could ever have done. The people at Anchor Point are loving and caring and true have a heart for the work they are doing. I love being a part of that, as I also have a complete heart for their ministry, having been through most of the situations in which they minister to others. God's timing is perfect and I love doing the work I'm doing for a non-profit that cares so much for people.
While there are many wonderful national charities, when I began my involvement with Anchor Point, I wanted a non-profit that I could help effect change locally. The genuineness of the employees is encouraging and creates a safe environment for the clients. There are many diverse areas that Anchor Point serves, but they all focus on the mission of championing the future of children by educating and empowering parents. I look forward to continuing my involvement and am excited about the future.
