Carrington Academy Students Donate Gifts to Children in Need

Students at three schools worked together to collect gifts to benefit Anchors of Hope Ministries

Students at Carrington Academy in the Atlanta area – including schools in Alpharetta and Cumming – recently donated dozens of toys to Anchors of Hope Ministries, an organization that aims to be to be anchors of hope to families affected by cancer, with a focus on childhood cancer. Their goal is to offer families not only financial help in time of need, but also hope and encouragement. For two weeks, students held a gift drive to collect items for children and families supported by the organization. Through this initiative, students learned the importance of giving back to the community, especially during the holiday season.
