Our Mission...
VISION
The Anderson Impact Center (AIC) is in the process of building a world-class Training, Education, and Leadership Center in the Anderson community. We are acquiring state-of-the-art equipment to provide service in an environment of compassion and respect, while remaining dedicated to the highest standards of life-long education and community development. AIC’s core operations form four pillars of the organization:
1
Advocacy
2
Financial
Stability
3
Neighborhood
Revitalization
4
Arts & Culture
Our programs and services will continue to grow with the structure of the four organizational pillars, bringing continued revitalization to a depressed area, and empowering our community neighbors to succeed and give back.
Our Beginnings
Native Andersonians Reverend (Dr.) James Streeter and Reverend Earlie Dixon collectively recognized a desperate need for readily-available education and personal development services in their community. Out of their shared desire to address these needs and better the standard of living throughout the area, the idea for the Anderson Impact Center was born. Although both are now retired, their vision still plays a role in changing the face of the community they grew up in and helping the city they love.
