We already have a brand messaging brief outlining our language used to date. We have a Twitter account with 252 followers, Instagram 627 followers, and a Facebook page with 696 'likes'. We also have a small list of press contacts from WGBH and others.
How this will help
This project will save us $4,762 , allowing us to support our fathers in our new initiative of Bags for Dads. Also, it will allow for us to continue provide our therapeutic transport from prison to home to our fathers.
Like every non-profit, storytelling is a critical part of our operation. Without stories, we cannot communicate what we do and therefore cannot fully utilize or impress our current or future donors. This project will help increase donors and further our efforts to supporting fathers with mental health services to ensure that they can reconnect with their children in a healthy manner.
Project plan
Our mission
Fathers' Uplift works to assist fathers in overcoming barriers (financial barriers, addiction barriers, oppressive barriers, emotional barriers and traumatic barriers) that prevent them from remaining engaged in their children's lives. Fathers have a powerful and positive impact upon the development and health of children. Fathers' Uplift is here to help each father reach their potential for themselves and the children in their lives. We uplift fathers and strengthen families nationwide through service, love, and encouragement.
What we do
Fathers' Uplift aims to:
Provides fathers with a safe space to spend time with their children in a stress free setting.
Support agencies in developing creative ways to increase male engagement and create a father friendly environment.
Address fathers' concerns about poverty and the importance of their roles in the life of their family through supportive groups, psycho-educational support, and professional development that promote self-advocacy.
Engage in research and advocacy that render solutions on ways to engage fathers in the lives of their children.
Celebrate fathers and encourage others to do so.
Everyone has the potential to be a good parent. Emotional scars and systemic oppression, however, diminishes that potential. And we protect ourselves the best way we know how. Often times, we see fathers, remaining disengaged. Our uplifting duty requires us to pick our fathers up from the pits of despair and assist them in regaining every ounce of confidence they possessed before they encountered these barriers. We are obligated to help fathers overcome. We pride ourselves on being servants.
