     Can you believe we are already in the month of April? This month we are going to share with you many of the same things we spoke about last month. First, we began our fund raising campaign to Give A Dollar to Support A Father last month which will last through the month of April. The proceeds of this campaign are used to help us with The Father of the Year Expenses as well as Father Daughter and Father Son Recognition day activities. We could really use your help as we continue to support these activities designed to recognize and enhance the father children relationship. Please click the link below and make a $5.00 or more donation as we continue to promote responsible fatherhood.

     Also please remember that the 2012 NPCL Fatherhood conference in Fort Lauderdale, FL on June 12-15, 2012  is where we will be presenting our second annual Father of the year award. Please download a nomination package and nominate a worthy father. The deadline to submit a nomination is the 15th of April and as of this date the response that we have received hasn't matched what we had last year at this time. Please get the word out so we can reward one of these worthy fathers. We have many other things to share as you read our newsletter and we thank you for your continued support.

Father Daughter Recognition Day

April 21,2012




This is the third year that Committed Fathers Alliance has promoted Father Daughter Recognition Day. Fathers please take the time to do something special for your daughter on this day. Send her flowers to say I love you, treat her to dinner and a movie, or give her a card to say I appreciate you and am proud of the young woman you have become. The following video is something I found on youtube and wanted to share with everybody for a little fun and to get you in the spirit of Father Daughter Recognition day.

Father Son Father Daughter Recognition Day Petition

 


Read the Petition

 

To:  U.S.Congress

 

The relationship between a father and his child is a relationship that should be honored, respected, and encouraged. This country is facing an epidemic of children growing up without the love, support, and encouragement that a father can provide. Data from the U.S. Dept. Health and Human Services shows that children from fatherless homes are:  

 

· 5 times more likely to commit suicide.  

· 32 times more likely to run away.

· 20 times more likely to have behavioral disorders.

· 14 times more likely to commit rape.

· 9 times more likely to drop out of school.

· 10 times more likely to abuse chemical substances.

· 9 times more likely to end up in a state operated institution.

· 20 times more likely to end up in prison.  

 

The Committed Fathers Alliance is dedicated to enhance the relationship between fathers and their children. In an effort to restore strained relationships and enhance existing relationships between fathers and their children, the Committed Fathers Alliance is proposing a National Father Daughter Recognition Day to be held on the third Saturday in the month of April and a National Father Son Recognition Day to be held on the third Saturday in the month of July. These are days where the relationship between a father and his daughter and a father and his son can be celebrated by the general public along with the father and his child. These will be special days where a father can enhance the relationship with his children by sharing an activity, special event, or dinner as a means of showing the love and commitment he has for his child. Please help our efforts to establish these special days by signing this petition in order to show your support of the importance of reestablishing and enhancing the father children relationships in this country.   

Sincerely,

 

Sign the Petition
