describe the imageWe're excited to let you know that our very own president, Roland Warren, will be recognized by The White House as a Champion of Change in responsible fatherhood on Wednesday, June 13. 

Champions of Change: Winning the Future Across America is an initiative of The White House that shows:

The best ideas come from the American People. All across the country, ordinary Americans are doing extraordinary things in their communities to out-innovate, out-educate and out-build the rest of the world.

Watch the live stream of the Champions of Change event on Wednesday from 1:00 to 2:30p.m. EST at http://www.whitehouse.gov/live.

We are humbled and honored to have Roland receive this recognition for his many years of work to promote responsible fatherhood in our society. 

As you most likely know, Roland is passionate about connecting fathers heart-to-heart with their children.  We're very proud of the impact he has made through his service at National Fatherhood Initiative.
