Giving Tuesday

When Fathers Show Up, Communities Grow.

This Giving Tuesday, YOU can help a father show up!

We are proud to launch The Waterbury Fatherhood Mobilization Initiative — the first intentional effort to make Waterbury the most father-friendly city in Connecticut. Donate today and help us build resources, spaces, and opportunities that fathers in our community have asked for and deserve.

Your support helps us:

  • Launch a Fatherhood Resource Hub (one-stop access to parenting resources, legal support, mental health, job training, and housing links).
  • Fund father-child events, workshops, mentoring, and volunteer opportunities, strengthening families and reducing community violence.
  • Promote father involvement in schools, education, and youth mentoring.
  • Run city-wide campaigns showcasing positive images of fathers, shifting the
    narrative and inspiring the next generation.

What we know:

When fathers engage, communities thrive. Children experience better academic outcomes, reduced behavior issues, and increased confidence. Families become stronger. Neighborhoods become safer.

Your gift directly funds:
$25 — Father-child bonding activity materials
$50 — Mental health session sponsorship for a father
$100 — Covers a workshop for 10 fathers
$500 — Sponsors a full community fatherhood event
$1,000 — Supports the Fatherhood Resource Hub launch

Every dollar becomes a direct investment into fathers who want to invest in their children. Donate today. Give a father the chance to show up.
