Passages values fathers in our communities! This past weekend we were a part of the Lorain County Urban League Block Party, as well as Cleveland's Family Fun Day in Public Square earlier this week, too!

These were great community events that brought together so many fathers and their families throughout Northeast Ohio!

Site Visit Spotlight: Passages, Connecting Fathers & Families

Today, Impact100 Cleveland members visited Passages Connecting Fathers and Sons as part of our inaugural grant site visit season.

Passages Connecting Fathers and Sons is advancing in our Family focus area and is empowering fathers and families through parenting education, workforce development, and family stabilization. During the visit, members learned more about the organization's mission, met with its leadership, and gained a deeper understanding of its proposed project and community impact.

Site visits are an important part of our grant review process, giving members the opportunity to move beyond the written application and experience firsthand the organizations serving Greater Cleveland.

Thank you to Passages Connecting Fathers and Sons for welcoming our members and sharing your work!

Each site visit brings us one step closer to selecting five finalists and awarding our inaugural $70,000 transformational grant.

Today, we celebrate fathers, grandfathers, stepfathers, mentors, and father figures who lead with love, strength, and dedication.

Fatherhood isn’t about perfection, it’s about being present, growing, and showing up for your children and family.

Dads: we see you, appreciate you, and celebrate you.

Happy Father’s Day from all of us at Passages Connecting Fathers and Families. Thank you for the difference you make in the lives of children, families, and communities. 💙
