The Georgia District Anchor Clubs allows young people to make a difference in their
world through volunteer service. Anchor was started in 1952. Anchors learn valuable
skills that prepare them to become more understanding of those in need while having
fun through friendship and service
Characteristics of an Anchor:
Altruism — Anchors participate in altruistic activities through selection,
organization and participation in various service projects,
both in their schools and in their communities.
Noble Purpose — Anchors discover that it is always
more rewarding to give than to receive.
Citizenship — Anchors assume leadership roles within their club and
are given the drive and experience to become better citizens.
Honor — Anchors are honorable people: honest and fair,
showing integrity through consistency in their beliefs and actions.
Open-Minded — Anchors step outside their own comfort zone
to view others and themselves in a new and kinder light.
Responsibility — Anchors are taught to be responsible
for themselves and others through group activities.
