2010 EVENTS: Dads Make a Difference held its 1st Annual Glow Ball Golf Fundraising Event on Saturday, August 21, 2010 at Parkview Golf Course in Eagan, MN. It was a golf event with a fun twist! The event began at 6:00PM with dinner, silent auction, putting contest and program, and golf started at 8:00PM. Golfers participated in a team of 3 to 5 people, with a shotgun start, scramble format, and the magic "glow balls." It was a hot, steamy night and the mosquitoes were a plenty, but a good time was had by all.
Dads Make a Difference held its Always & Forever Benefit Event on Thursday, September 16, 2010 at Illusion Theater in downtown Minneapolis, MN. The evening started at 7:00PM with a delightful social hour that included a scrumptious dessert reception, cash bar, and silent auction in the Illusion Theater lobby. We then moved into the theater for the hit musical revue Always and Forever which began at 8:00PM! Hitting the stage for a knock-your-socks-off return after years of audience requests, Always & Forever charmed us into love. Set in a 1970's urban neighborhood barbershop, the play mixed wisdom and song to show what love is all about. Using popular '60's and '70's R&B songs like "Can't Get Enough of Your Love," "Stop, Look, Listen," and "When a Man Loves a Woman," the play showed the world of love through the lives of four African American men.

Dads Make a Difference began this journey with tpt in November 2008 and was excited to share the finished product with our friends, colleagues, and community partners. We talked about the process, thanked those involved, viewed the half hour program, listened to T. Mychael Rambo perform the song that sparked the title, took comments, shared broadcast dates/times, and talked about next steps including replacing the original DMAD curriculum video from 1994 with a shortened version of this program.
Be There: Dads Matter – Young people who understand parental responsibility are more likely to form strong families; these families are the backbone of productive, nurturing communities. Explore the importance and the positive impact of fathers. Learn why it is important to be financially and emotionally prepared for child-rearing in order to create safe, stable, and healthy family environments.
