Bags for Dad Initiative
When a father enters jail or prison, the experience profoundly impacts his identity and often creates a painful separation from his role as a dad. This disconnection affects not only the fathers but also their families, including their children, who long for the presence and support of their dads.
That’s where Bags for Dads steps in. We provide fathers with essential items packed thoughtfully in a sturdy duffel bag. Each bag includes necessities like a comb, toothbrush, shampoo, deodorant, and more—everything a father needs to maintain his dignity and sense of self during a challenging time. Our mission is to remind these fathers that they are not alone; someone cares and is standing beside them now and upon their release.
By hosting a donation drive for Bags for Dads, you can play a crucial role in supporting these fathers. Together, we can help them regain their sense of identity and prepare them for successful reintegration into their families and communities.
If you’d like to host a donation drive for Bags for Dads, please contact our team at [email protected]. Your support can help restore hope, dignity, and family connections that are crucial for these fathers and their children. Let’s stand together to support those striving to rebuild their lives.
