🩵 Thank You, Schellhardt Family!

We are incredibly honored to recognize the Schellhardt Family as the Admiral Sponsor and presenting sponsor of Anchored in Hope, our highest level of sponsorship.

From the very beginning, Archie’s Anchors has been built on the belief that families can do extraordinary things when they stand alongside one another. The Schellhardt Family’s generosity is a beautiful example of exactly that.

And with just two weeks to go, we are incredibly excited to share that we are nearly at our $25,000 fundraising goal! ⚓️

We’re close, but we’re not there yet!

There is still plenty of time to stand alongside the Schellhardt Family and help us finish strong:

To the Schellhardt Family: thank you for believing in our family, believing in this mission, and leading the way as we anchor hope for the AHC community. Your generosity means more to us than we can say.

Now let’s get to $25,000. 🩵⚓️

🥊 Congratulations, Uncle Eric! ⚓️

This past weekend, Archie’s Uncle Eric stepped into the ring at the Pat Johnson Masters Boxing Championship in Atlantic City and we couldn’t be more proud.

For our family, Eric has always represented something bigger than boxing. He has consistently modeled what it means to keep showing up, keep fighting, and never give up, no matter what is standing in front of you.

That determination means even more to us because it’s the same spirit we see in Archie and in so many families navigating life with AHC every day.

We are incredibly grateful to have Eric in Archie’s corner, not only as an uncle, but as someone who proudly shares Archie’s story and helps introduce more people to Alternating Hemiplegia of Childhood.

Congratulations, Eric. We’re proud of you and even more grateful to have you fighting alongside us. 🥊⚓️🩵

We’re incredibly grateful to The Wildset in beautiful St. Michaels, Maryland, for supporting this year’s Anchored in Hope with an incredible silent auction donation!

The Wildset has generously donated a two-night stay at their stunning Eastern Shore property. Rooted in the spirit of St. Michaels and thoughtfully brought to life through a collection of historic buildings, The Wildset offers a one-of-a-kind escape where the charm of the town, the beauty of the waterfront, and the ease of coastal living come together.

Think slow mornings, beautiful spaces, time spent exploring one of Maryland’s most special destinations, and a stay that feels both relaxed and unforgettable. ⚓️

We’re so thankful to have businesses like The Wildset standing alongside our family and using what they do best to help us raise critical funds and awareness for the AHC community.

And there’s still time for your business or family to join them!

This is our why. 🩵

We share pieces of our life with AHC here, but the truth is, so much of this journey happens when the camera is off.

These moments don’t always make it to social media, but they are still happening frequently. For Archie. For families throughout the AHC community. Every single day.

And this is why we keep fighting.

Why we raise awareness.
Why we fund research.
Why we created Archie’s Anchors.
And why Anchored in Hope means so much more to us than just one afternoon together.

It’s a chance to turn moments like this into momentum. To bring more people into this fight. And to help move us closer to better treatments, therapies, and one day, a cure.

🎟️ Tickets for Anchored in Hope are still available: fundrazr.com/anchoredinhope

Come spend the afternoon with us. Come meet this incredible community. Come help us anchor hope for families living this life every day.

This is our why. We hope you’ll be part of what comes next. ⚓️🩵

🩵 Thank You, Graybeal Family!

The heart of Archie’s Anchors has always been families standing alongside families.

We’re incredibly grateful to the Graybeal Family for becoming a Commander Sponsor of this year’s Anchored in Hope, and even more grateful that their support of our mission extends beyond just one event.

They’ve shown up for Archie’s Anchors before, and having families who continue to believe in what we’re building means more to us than we can put into words.

Their generosity helps us continue raising awareness, supporting the AHC community, and funding research toward better treatments and, ultimately, a cure.

And there’s still plenty of time for your family to stand alongside ours. 🩵

Join the Graybeal Family and so many incredible supporters in Annapolis on September 13 for Anchored in Hope. Whether you become a sponsor, contribute to our silent auction, or simply help spread the word, you become part of the community helping us create a brighter future for children living with AHC.

From our family to the Graybeal Family, thank you for continuing to anchor hope with us. ⚓️

Our hearts are shattered for one of our own.

Over the weekend, Jett Killworth (AHC/ATP1A2) suddenly and tragically lost both of his parents, Kimberly and Kevin Killworth.

Jett is safe and surrounded by family, and his older sisters have now stepped into the role of becoming his primary caregivers.

There are simply no words for the grief and heartbreak this family is facing. While we cannot take away their pain, we can come together as a community to help ease some of the financial burden that lies ahead.

We are asking the entire AHC community, and everyone whose heart is moved by Jett’s story, to please help however you can. No contribution is too small.

Please donate or share:

We kindly request that everyone respect the family’s privacy in this difficult time. Please keep Jett, his sisters, and everyone who loved Kimberly and Kevin in your hearts during this unimaginable time. ❤️

Alyssa, Jett, and Daley are navigating an unimaginable tragedy. Days ago, they suddenly and unexpectedly lost both their mother, Kimberly Killworth, and their stepfather, Kevin Killworth. This horrific loss leaves Alyssa (27), Daley (22), and Jett (11) without their mother and stepfather. It also le...
