Project details

What we need
  • Clear and effective copy for an annual report that illustrates the Organization’s successes and plans for growth (e.g., descriptions of programs, allocation of funds, and recognition of donors and volunteers)
  • Blueprint of the structure for the annual report, including optimal content, length, and style
What we have in place
  • We already have a brand messaging brief outlining our language used to date. Our ED completed an annual report last year that was sent to our donors and supporters, it was in a form of a newsletter.
How this will help
This project will save us $9,148 , allowing us to grow our staff capacity. Which allows us to service more fathers with mental health care, case management and coaching. Hence reconnecting more children to a healthy father or father figure.

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. Fathers' UpLift annual report can show donors and supporters this years impact, with a tight budget and staff of 9 were close to reaching our goal of serving, 900 fathers children and families. Your support of Fathers' UpLift will have lasting and meaningful effects, on the lives of our fathers families and communities. Together we can have a significant impact on fatherhood and male engagement.

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.
