Official Statement from the Founder & President of Anonymous Helpers
To our volunteers, supporters, partners, and members of the Anonymous Helpers community,
After careful consideration, I am announcing that I will be taking a temporary medical sabbatical from the day-to-day operations of Anonymous Helpers, effective immediately.
Due to ongoing medical issues that require my full attention, I must step away from my customary around-the-clock involvement and reduce my availability significantly over the coming months. This means I will no longer be accessible on a 24/7 basis for calls, messages, meetings, crisis coordination, or daily organizational matters as I have been in the past.
This decision was not made lightly; however, it is both medically necessary and personally imperative that I dedicate this time to my health and recovery.
Anonymous Helpers will continue moving forward during this period under the support of delegated leadership, volunteers, and organizational systems already in place. While I remain Founder and President, my direct participation will be limited, and responses from me personally may be delayed or unavailable for an extended period of time.
I ask that all members, volunteers, and those we serve respect this temporary boundary and understand that my reduced presence is necessary in order to ensure my long-term ability to continue serving this mission.
Anonymous Helpers has always stood for compassion, support, and understanding in times of hardship. At this time, I am asking for that same compassion and understanding to be extended to me as I focus on my medical needs.
Thank you for your continued dedication to this organization and the people who depend on it.
Respectfully,
Wanda Dicks
Founder & President
Anonymous Helpers
