Anchor 4 Hope
Enrichment Center
The mission of Anchor 4 Hope Enrichment Center is to guide lives toward hope, growth and opportunity.
We are dedicated to building a community network by which children, families, and individuals can access meaningful programs, develop life skills, and reach toward the extraordinary potential that lives within all of us!
Strategic Focus
Our initial focus is enriching the lives of children in grades TK-12. Geographically we are prioritizing Greater Los Angeles. As a Vendor (service provider) for entities such as LAUSD, we offer programs that are much needed, but not widely available in the public schools.
Future Plans
Eventually the scope of our activities will include:
-
a TK-12 school,
-
a Credit Union,
-
and a physical building for our
Community Enrichment Center
Featured Programs
Youth Boxing Program
Facilitating more students from LAUSD participating in the Freddie Roach Youth Boxing Academy.
"Anchored for Success"
A career inspiration and mentorship program with successful individuals from exciting industries.
Summer Camp '26
A safe and enriching camp for kids featuring visual and performing arts, math and literature, and lots of fun!
Additional Programs

"Anchored 4 Health"
Helping youth overcome obesity through mentorship, fun, and wholesome habits.
