By committing to one of the monthly recurring gift programs below, you will help make a world of difference in our efforts to empower fathers and strengthen families across our communities. Through your commitment, we can continue to provide and enhance critical services such as workforce development, parenting education, job readiness, anger management, and other initiatives to strengthen the social, emotional and economic health of our men and boys. Our programs help fathers develop the skills they need to be active, engaged and loving parents, while also providing young men, starting at 13, the skills required to be successful in life.. Your contribution ensures that we can reach even more families, making a lasting impact on the lives of both fathers and their children.
Your support fuels our work and helps us continue to expand our programs that currently exist in
Mercer, Burlington and Camden counties, ensuring that more fathers receive the tools, guidance,
and encouragement they need to thrive.

This year’s 20th Annual Platinum Dads Celebration will be a milestone event honoring fathers who make a profound impact in their families and communities.
This special event will take place on Friday, June 6, 2025, at 4:00 p.m. at The Bradford Estate in Hainesport, New Jersey, marking two decades of celebrating fatherhood, leadership, and community impact. Your support will directly contribute to empowering fathers, strengthening families, and creating lasting change in the lives of those we serve.
The Platinum Dads Celebration is more than an event—it’s a movement dedicated to uplifting fathers and transforming communities. In its 20th year, this event has honored hundreds of inspiring fathers while raising essential funds to advance The Father Center of New Jersey’s (TFCNJ) mission: equipping men with the skills, resources, and confidence to embrace fatherhood and positively impact their children’s lives.
Children thrive when fathers are present, engaged, and empowered. Yet, too many fathers face financial, emotional, and systemic barriers that prevent them from fully stepping into their role. With your support, we break down these obstacles and create life-changing opportunities for men and boys at every stage—from adolescents to returning citizens.
Through mentorship and leadership development, teenage boys gain the tools to make healthy choices, preventing premature fatherhood and setting them on a path to success. For adult men, we provide workforce development, case management, and parenting instruction, ensuring they have the skills and support to build stable futures for their children.
When fathers are empowered, families are stronger, communities are safer, and futures are brighter. Your support makes that possible.
