Fatherhood isn't always celebrated with the visibility it deserves. The Good Dad Award™ is a non-profit program designed to change that — by recognizing men of excellent character who are raising the next generation well.

The award is intentionally broad: biological, adoptive, step, foster, grandfathers, and other father figures can all be honored. The only requirement is a story worth telling.

If you've seen one, share it with us. Submit a nomination today at urbanlight.org.

Finish the sentence: 'My dad always said…'

Some of the best lessons come in one line. 🧡

Finish the sentence in the comments: ➡️ 'My dad always said…'

We'll share a few of our favorites next week. And if the line you remember came from a dad who deserves recognition, nominate him for the 2026 Good Dad Award™ — link in comments.

You don't have to be his kid to nominate him.

A coach. A neighbor. The uncle who stepped in. The grandad raising grandkids. The foster dad down the street.

If you've seen the way he shows up for his family, you can nominate him for the 2026 Good Dad Award™. No paperwork. No fee. Just a story worth telling.

💙 Tag someone below who comes to mind — then head to the link to nominate.

What makes a 'Good Dad' in our eyes?

The Good Dad Award™ isn't about perfection — it's about presence. We recognize fathers who:

• Demonstrate an outstanding commitment to raising their children
• Serve as inspirational role models, especially those who've triumphed over adversity
• Contribute to the well-being of children in their community
• Provide leadership to other fathers

If that sounds like a dad you know, take 5 minutes and put his name forward.
