Everyone plays an important role, from raising the walls and attaching the roof to making a delicious meal to enjoy together after the day's work. The community-building that Good Dads has achieved is not unlike a barn-raising. Stakeholders from all walks of life become involved in the mission, and every role is vital to creating a better place to live. That's why we chose this theme for the 2023 celebration: It exemplifies the hard work, community togetherness and big accomplishments that we'll honor at the event. Didn't receive an invite?
