Anchor was honored last week to receive a grant from Aastha Horizons. “Aastha” carries the meaning of belief, faith, trust, and hope for a better tomorrow, and the fund was established by local Asian-Indian professionals as a giving circle rooted in collective generosity for Lancaster County. In other words, this was not simply a check photo, but a picture of people pooling resources, wisdom, and concern for the good of their neighbors. We are grateful for partners whose shared conviction becomes something tangible, and for the Lord who continues providing for Lancaster through many willing hands. Learn more about Aastha Horizons

I voted. Did you?

Not that vote! You already survived campaign signs, ballots, and at least one conversation that got tense faster than expected.

This one is easier!

🚨 Did you know?

Most people assume nonprofit board positions are honorary, but board members in the United States carry legal responsibility for how an organization is governed — even as volunteers.

They volunteer their time, experience, and discernment often after work, around family schedules, and without a paycheck attached to help oversee:

• finances
• leadership
• mission
• accountability
• long-term direction

With more than 2 million nonprofits across the country, we praise God for the men and women He has called to bring wisdom and service to the ministry entrusted to Anchor.

This week, we’re excited to introduce two new additions to Anchor’s Board⚓️

As many of you know, Anchor has been asking for cereal🥣

And this week? Cereal arrived. Right on time.

Thank you to the women of Beta Sigma Phi for blessing Anchor with a significant cereal donation and an ALDI gift card!

God is good, all the time!

🥞 Last week, Anchor served 1,043 breakfast meals.
That brings our daily average to more than 200 meals every morning.

There was a time when 200 breakfasts was the exception.
Now, it is becoming the pace of the work.

The math is simple. The need is not. But God keeps placing provision within reach.

The kitchen is currently in need of Raisin Bran, Frosted Flakes, and Froot Loops. To keep storage simple and service consistent, these are the only three cereals we’re requesting right now. If you’re able to donate a box or two, our breakfast crew would be grateful!

Donations can be dropped off at First United Methodist Church Monday–Thursday between 8am–1pm (29 E. Walnut St. Lancaster, Pa)

Most people will scroll past this in a second.

We’re asking you not to.

While a daily vote may feel tiny to you, the help it could lead to is not tiny to your neighbor trying to avoid eviction, access clean clothes, take a shower, secure employment, or get a ride to an interview that might change everything.

It is easy to pass by what is not physically in front of us. No one is standing in your path asking for help. But hidden need is still need, and the Lord has always cared deeply about what we do in the small moments when no one is watching.

One click does not look like much. Until you know it's part of something that keeps lives from unraveling.

Please vote for Anchor through the Solomon Lancaster Give A Chance

Solomon Project today and daily through May 15th!
