The new year is a special time when we are excited for new possibilities and a renewed hope for the future. As we embark on this new year, we remain on mission and on purpose to serve youth and families in our community.
 
Our before and after school program, Hope Leadership Academy, will strive to help struggling students with reading and literacy. We recognize that if children struggle with reading, they’ll struggle with learning.  
 
Last year we re-launched Stronger Sons, our mentoring program for young men who are fatherless or growing up without a strong father. In the coming year we are excited to continue building this program and making a bigger impact in the lives of those we serve, through service projects, life skill sessions, and in school visits.
 
Children and families are why we do what we do, and YOU are the how. Making an impact on the lives of those who need it most takes all of us. I invite you to join me and everyone at Stronger Than Father as we continue our journey of giving hope and changing lives.
 
With gratitude,
Marcus Meneese
