We're Helping Our Community In Response To COVID-19
"It’s hard to remember that parents are people,
and people don’t necessarily know what to do sometimes. So, when people don’t know what to do,

Celebrating Father's Day 2020
Notable Dads & Special Men of Promise Heights
Studies have shown that active and engaged fathers help build self-esteem, academic capabilities, and emotional confidence in their children. And these engaged men can also contribute and reinforce good behaviors while offering far different perspectives than mothers.
Since it's not possible to gather in person to honor these relationships due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and given it’s nearly Father’s Day 2020, we wanted to share insights into several men that we admire in our community.
Check out the story on our website, where we've featured several loving fathers, as well as a few great men working in the neighborhood. Without a question, each of them are strong father-figures. Allow us to introduce you to several men of Promise Heights.
