It is with a heavy heart to inform you that I am leaving Anchor of Hope as Executive Director. I will stay on to help the transition at least through January. As God leads me on a new path, I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude and appreciation to Anchor of Hope, our supporters, our volunteers, our families, and our community for allowing me to serve as Executive Director for the last 7 years. The joy and love I have received from this role will stay in my heart forever! I ask that you pray for Anchor of Hope as they begin a new chapter, and continue to provide them with support, prayers, and blessings. If your contact for AOH is carrie@anchorofhopefoundation.com, please update to aohfoundation@gmail.com

With all my love,
