Engage Dads in your school community in 2026
Help your school connect fathers, father figures, and students in meaningful ways in 2026 and strengthen your school-family partnership.
It's not only about dads. Stronger families and communities mean brighter futures for our children.
The Fathering Project positively impacts fathering behaviour and fathers’ engagement with children through evidence-rich programs and resources that engage, equip and support fathers, families, schools, employers and community organisations.

How you can help
Your donation is being used to transform the lives of children, fathers and families.
We believe the true impact of having confident and engaged Dads will be felt not just at home but across communities and society as a whole. Supporting fathers and father figures to be the best they can be means children with happier, healthier futures. With the generous support of our donors and sponsors, The Fathering Project will help to improve the lives of children today and for generations to come.
It means we can provide every father, or father-figure, the tools to engage with their children and to help them thrive.
