π Father's Day is Almost Here, and Our Dads Matter Too π
As Father's Day approaches, many of us are thinking about the fathers, grandfathers, and father figures who have impacted our lives. While families across our community prepare to celebrate, we are reminded that there are also fathers staying in our shelters and housing programs who deserve to feel seen, appreciated, and valued.
The men we serve are more than their circumstances. They are fathers who love their children, fathers working to rebuild their lives, fathers striving to secure stable housing, employment, and a brighter future for their families.
This Father's Day, we are asking our community to help us honor these dads with small gifts of encouragement. Gift cards, personal care items, socks, t-shirts, snacks, and other thoughtful items can remind a father that he is not forgotten.
Sometimes the greatest gift is simply knowing that someone cares.
If you would like to donate a Father's Day gift or sponsor one of the fathers in our shelter and housing programs, please contact:
