Our little blue boxes.


---

Find Your Anchor boxes are always free for those in need. However, we run mainly on donations -- any amount is greatly appreciated and helps us put a little more love and support into the world.


---

Each box costs $25 to create (domestic shipping included).
But the difference it makes is priceless.

** as much as we would love to, at the moment we cannot afford to cover international shipping - please donate $25 to cover shipping for your box (if outside the U.S.) **

Please consider making a donation today.

Are you struggling?

The box is yours for as long as you need it, no questions attached. However, when you find yourself in a better spot, consider passing it along to someone else.

When you are ready, add your own anchors, resources, or whatever you’d like to the box and launch it into the world.

You can pass it on personally by giving it to a person you know is in need, or you can launch the box anonymously. Our favorite spots are: libraries, parks, and coffeeshops; but really, the choice is yours!

Note: Veteran boxes now available.

Do you know someone who’s struggling?
Do you have a great spot in mind to launch a box?

Our Messengers act as advocates, delivery people, and all around ambassadors. They help us reach those we never could ourselves.

They also help keep us going (and keep boxes free for those struggling) by donating $25 for their box. 

You can pass it on personally by giving it to a person you know is in need, or you can launch the box anonymously. Our favorite spots are: libraries, parks, and coffeeshops; but really, the choice is yours!


Note: Veteran boxes now available.
