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
