Anne has traveled around the world telling the stories of hope found in the least likely of places. She is a contributing writer to various blogs and magazines as well as a speaker advocate for Compassion International. Anne was a cyclist on the 2010 Ride:Well Tour, a cross-country cycling tour in June and July 2010. The goal of the trip is to raise awareness and funding for water wells in Africa through the Blood:Water Mission water initiative. Since 2008, via online campaigns and speaking engagements, almost $1 million dollars (contributed directly to each respective non-profit) has been raised for charitable causes.
Anne will be giving away copies of her newest book through the next Origins newsletter. If you aren’t already signed up for the newsletter, you can sign up here. Keep your eyes out for it!

The Origins Project is a network of people who are passionate about Jesus, humanity, and innovation. Our inaugural Origins Event involved a day of activism and service on Friday July 23rd and a day of training and networking at Club Nokia in the heart of Los Angeles, CA on July 24th. We focused on creativity, activism, and equipping others for the mission of Jesus.
The Origins Event DVD includes 2 discs with speakers, panels, and small group questions based on the July 24th Origins Event plus a round table discussion with several leaders of the Origins Project. The Origins Event DVD includes almost 3 hours of footage and will be great for leadership development and for small groups!
