Donate & Make a Difference
Why Your Donation Matters
At the Supportive Brotherhood of Fatherly Mentors (SBFM), we believe that empowered fathers create healthier families and stronger communities. Every dollar you give helps us fund life-changing programs like mentorship initiatives, workshops, educational retreats, and community-building events. Your contribution directly supports:
- Mentorship Programs: Matching experienced dads with those seeking guidance, ensuring every father has someone to lean on.
- Workshops & Seminars: Providing expert-led sessions on parenting skills, mental well-being, and personal growth.
- Annual Retreats & Events: Offering fathers opportunities to bond, learn, and recharge through immersive experiences like our Walleye Fishing Trip and Golf Outing.
With your help, we can continue our mission to uplift fathers, strengthen family relationships, and foster safer, more engaged communities.
How Your Donation is Used
We take pride in responsibly managing each gift. Here’s how we allocate funds:
- Programs & Services (Mentorship, workshops, events): ~80%+
- Operational Costs (Administrative, marketing, technology): ~5%
- Community Outreach & Scholarships (Financial assistance for fathers who need support): ~15%
We regularly review our budgets to ensure optimal use of resources. By being transparent with our finances, we nurture the trust of every donor who believes in our vision.
