ABOUT ANCHOR CENTER FOR BLIND CHILDREN Anchor Center for Blind Children specializes in serving children during the most formative years of their lives, birth to age five, who are blind, have serious visual impairments, or have dual sensory (i.e. visual and auditory) impairments. Headquartered in Denver, Colorado for 36 years, Anchor Center is one of only a handful of schools in the country that offers the full range of early intervention, therapy, vision care, and special education services for young children with limited to no sight. In fact, families have moved to Denver, Colorado, to enroll their child(ren) in Anchor Center’s highly specialized and well recognized multi-disciplinary programs for infants, toddlers and preschool children. Founded by the women of Delta Gamma, Anchor Center has helped thousands of children reach critical early childhood milestones, very often catching up to the developmental milestones of their peers. Equally as important, Anchor Center has helped thousands of parents, grandparents and families gain knowledge, skills and confidence to support and nurture their child’s life of exploration and education.
This is why Anchor Center for Blind Children exists. And this is why your sponsorship means the world to the more than 200 children and their families that will be served by Anchor Center this year.
Built in 2007, Anchor Center’s school and therapy center is expressly designed for young children who are visually impaired. It is a place filled with all forms of light and texture; a teaching tool in and of itself.
