Daddy's Promise

Daddy's Promise

Award-winning broadcast journalist, Ed Gordon created Daddy’s Promise, an initiative designed to focus the attention of the African-American community on the positive relationship that can and should exist between fathers and daughters.

Through a national campaign and a series of community engagements, including a father and daughter dance that will take place during Father's Day weekend 2009, the initiative will encourage fathers to be actively involved in their daughter's lives. The movement gives this relationship a voice and creates a nationwide conversation with African-American families, ultimately celebrating fathers and father figures.
