Anchor

ANCHOR INTERNATIONAL
The Youth Division of Pilot International

Anchor International was started in 1952.  Anchor is made up of more than 6,000 young people — both male and female students. Anchor clubs are found throughout the United States, Bahamas and Japan. We currently have 33 Anchor Clubs in the Georgia District. Anchor Clubs take on many forms: some are affiliated with schools (middle schools and high schools); some are community-based. Some are large and some are small. Regardless of size or composition, one thing is true of all Anchors: they serve because they want to make a difference.

Anchor Club service projects increase the awareness of and help those affected by brain-related disorders. Anchor Club projects are as diverse as the schools and communities in which they are found. Whether working with special education kids or with senior adults affected by Alzheimer’s disease, Anchor members make a difference and have fun doing it!

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.
