Utilizing this strategy, Anders has worked with the San Francisco Housing Authority to create intelligent affordable housing. Furthermore, as a certified green building professional, Anders understands the importance of sustainable development and made sure all his projects are Green Point certified.

In addition to entrepreneurship, Anders is passionate about community service. He is a member of the Millbrae Lions Club where he volunteers and raises funds for educational and non-profit initiatives. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Anders volunteered with the Millbrae Lions Club along with Millbrae Cultural Committee and delivered over 6,000 face masks to community members. Anders also supported Lifesteps Foundation, served as a board member for the Peninsula Chinese Business Association (PCBA), fundraised for local schools and provided scholarship opportunities to students with financial needs.
