Our mission

No one should have to live without clean water.

Anchor Christian Fellowship has partnered with Filter of Hope, a 501(c)(3) non-profit that provides household water filters to families in need across Latin America.

This 5K sends a team of MSU students to Costa Rica in [MONTH YEAR], where they will personally deliver and set up filters in families’ homes — sharing the joy of clean water and the hope of the gospel.

Every dollar raised goes to Filter of Hope.
