Relief for single dads on Father's Day

With 1 day to go to Father's Day, I feel it's about time to take a look at the bigger picture and forget our own importance around Father's Day for a moment. I've just come across the Andre Sobel River of Life Foundation which supports single-parent families with terminally-ill children. The Foundation partners with children's hospitals and other providers to offer a 24-hour relief for single parents.

This Fathers Day, the Foundation is running a campaign for SINGLE FATHERS called "Dedication 2 Dads." Everyone can make donations in honor of their fathers and help single dads who are struggling financially as they care for their sick (sometimes dying) children.

For more information and to make a donation please visit the Andre Sobel River of Life website and click on the Dedications 2 Dads icon.
Read up on the initiative and select a way to donate. A list of the dads who have had donations made in their name will be listed on the Andre Sobel River of Life website.

What a great way to share some compassion to help other dads as we get ready to enjoy Father's Day with our children and families. Go on - spare a thought and spare a buck!
