Holiday Season
Dear Friends,

As we approach this holiday season, we remember those we hold in our hearts waiting with anticipation, hoping to see them soon and celebrate together. Quite appropriate, since the first Christmas was a gathering celebrating a new life and a new hope for the world. Each year we are reminded as word spread throughout the world of Jesus' birth, people from all walks of life were called to experience a new peace and hope that they had lacked for so long.

While we all have faced challenges this year, some we may have never expected, the children and families we serve are facing greater needs with fewer resources than many of us have every seen. They are looking to us for answers, looking for safety, peace and hope.

For many hurting children from all walks of life, Anchorage Children's Home is a place of peace, hope and caring they have needed. We see hearts mended, lives changed, and families being restored. This Christmas, Anchorage will be their home and their family, as we have for many others over the last 26 years. We feel privileged to be able care for them when they need us the most, but we need your help to do so.

As you draw your family close this holiday season, remember the children and families we serve. Consider giving a financial gift to help us be the family support they need during this season and in the year to come. Your generosity will enable us to provide a place of safety and belonging; a place to dream, heal and grow.

We pray for God???s special blessings for you and your family and hope this Christmas season is an unforgettable one for all.

Sincerely,


Tim Putman
Executive Director
Anchorage Children's Home
