Don't Forget the Dudes

We're here to encourage and support the dudes, no matter what they're facing. Dudes do not reach out and ask for help.

Don’t Forget the Dudes was inspired from a group of women who have a heart for giving back and provide hope to other women in need. Faithfully Restored Women was founded in 2019 and has thoughtfully served over 2,700 women in need. It is through their model, DFD had the realization that dudes are not typically encouraged to talk about feelings, hardships, stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, illness

, etc. Don’t Forget the Dudes recognizes the importance that any dude struggling, regardless of his circumstance, should and will be recognized and supported

To every volunteer who showed up, wrote notes, shared conversations, and gave your time—thank you. Because of you, hundreds of dads will be reminded that they are seen, valued, and not alone this Father’s Day!

Some days carry a little more weight, and for many dads, Father’s Day is one of them.

At Don’t Forget the Dudes, we’re committed to showing up for dudes in life’s hardest moments.

We wanted to send out a final call for names and donations that will support dads across the nation who are grieving the loss of their father or a child, and fathers who are spending this Sunday a little differently: at their child’s bedside—whether in the NICU, PICU, Pediatric Acute Inpatient, or Pediatric Hematology & Oncology at TriStar Centennial Children's Hospital in Nashville, TN.

We are honored to show our support and offer these men our prayers and a personalized note of encouragement.
It’s a simple reminder, but a powerful one: he’s not alone. 🤍

Submit a name through our prayer request form and/ or donate to help us serve these dudes by heading to the link in our bio.

A simple act of kindness can go further than we realize. 💛

Father’s Day doesn’t feel the same for every dad. For some, it carries quiet grief and an empty space that can’t be filled.

At Don’t Forget the Dudes, we want to meet those dads right where they are. If you know a dude who’s navigating the loss of his father or a child, we’d be honored to lift him up in prayer and send a handwritten note of encouragement this Father’s Day.

A small act of kindness means everything; it’s a reminder that someone sees him, cares for him, and is walking alongside him. 🤍

A message from Michelle Warren, a DFD cofounder: “I turned the calendar this morning to what use to be my favorite month. Warm weather, the boys excitement as they counted down their last days of school, the fireflies beginning to show up and light up the nights and my rose blossoms beginning to bloom in the most amazing colors! So much joy knowing I had 3 months with my boys without schedules, the house would be full of noise-laughter and arguments but I knew that this wasn’t to last as they grew older so I enjoyed every summer with them as much as I could.

May looks different now. My boys are out of the house with full time jobs and doing all the things, as they should. But, those fond memories of May have been replaced. May is painful. It’s a gut wrenching reminder that one of my sons went to Heaven this month. It’s a reminder how that one phone call in May changed our family forever. It will be six years on the 18th and I miss Sage even more as the time has passed.

Grief changes the calendar and rewrites the seasons but life continues. I hold onto the quiet truth that God is still present in both the beauty and the brokenness.

If this month brings pain for you, I pray you feel seen, comforted, and not alone.”
