Anchor Schools

Join Sara Mierke and the great team at Champions of Caring for a virtual workshop on MLK Day. They're introducing an Empowerment Guide they've been working on and doing a sprint to help people go from PASSION to ACTION.

Their message:

You’re never too young or too old to make a difference - or launch your own intergenerational social impact project! At Champions of Caring (CoC) we foster understanding and peace in society by helping people create change in their communities.

On Monday, January 15, we'll introduce The CoC Empowerment Guide, share a few key activities that will help you jump start a project of your own, and introduce you to a network of changemakers.

Our dynamic approach integrates three core elements:
- Intergenerational collaboration and action
- Service and social impact
- Universal lessons of the Holocaust and all forms of genocide
