ACORN TO OAK INTERNATIONAL, INC.
LUTZ, FLORIDA

Who we are and how we began: From the prodding of their God and a responsibility toward their faith a group of friends made a decision to take their hands and their hearts and make a difference in the world.  They talked about how by helping the under-priveledged, training leaders and partners, and taking the necessary steps of faith, they could meet the challenge of the call that faced them.  They identified with the verse from Isaiah 61:3, which says "So they will be called Oaks of Righteousness, the Planting of the Lord, that He may be Glorified."  From those early conversations, Acorn to Oak, International was born.  Today these friends are all actively engaged in working toward this cause.    Acorn to Oak, International exists, by nature of its name, to take small beginnings and grow them toward sustainable life, success and productivity.  Every oak tree began as a single acorn.  If placed in the right kind of soil, given the light and water that it needs, an acorn has what it needs to grow into what it was made for.  It is amazing the potential an acorn has when it is placed in the right environment.  It is our desire to create environments and programs that prepare people toward a productive and rewarding future.  We believe in cultivating good soil for ultimate seed potential.
