We ❤️AFC!

BIG BUCKS FOR OUR CLIENTS! The Kiwanis Club of Anacortes recently gifted AFC $2,500 Kiwanis Bucks to use at their Anacortes thrift store, delivered to us by past president Bert Clay. Just imagine our families turning those bucks into furniture for new apartments, school supplies for their kids, housewares, tools, even home decor...and more! We are honored to receive such incredible (and ongoing) support from the club. You all make a different to us and our clients--thank you!

❤️ Celebrating a Lifetime of Service & Dedication ❤️

For 15 years, Mr. Eric Johnson faithfully served on The Salvation Army Advisory Board, generously sharing his time, talents, wisdom, and countless connections to help further our mission and strengthen our ministry in the community.

Eric didn’t simply serve on a board—he invested in people. He believed in the mission of The Salvation Army and consistently used his gifts and influence to help us feed, shelter, and provide hope to those in need. His dedication, encouragement, generosity, and genuine love for this organization have left an incredible and lasting impact.

Recently, Eric and his wife moved across the country to be closer to family, and while we are so happy for them, we truly couldn’t miss him more! His presence, friendship, leadership, and support are deeply missed by our entire Salvation Army family.

Because of the extraordinary commitment Eric demonstrated over 15 years, we knew we wanted to find a special way to honor him. We submitted his name to become a Lifetime Member of The Salvation Army—the highest honor that can be bestowed upon an Advisory Board member.

We were absolutely thrilled when our Territorial Commander agreed that Eric was deserving of this tremendous honor. It was our privilege and joy to send this well-deserved recognition to Eric and his family.

Eric, thank you. Thank you for 15 years of faithful service. Thank you for believing in the mission. Thank you for opening doors, making connections, sharing your expertise, and always being willing to help. Most of all, thank you for the heart you brought to your service.

Your impact will continue to be felt for years to come, and you will always be a cherished part of our Salvation Army family. ❤️

Congratulations, Eric Johnson, on becoming a Lifetime Member of The Salvation Army! 🎉

With tremendous gratitude and appreciation,
The Salvation Army Anacortes ❤️
