What is Super Dad?
Learn MoreWhat's the most rewarding part about being a dad?
Waking up and seeing his smile from ear to ear. Knowing that every day is a new adventure, new experience, and full of first times for him.
Why do you strive to be the best dad you can be?
I want River to grow up and reminisce about our time together. Every memory we made, and lesson I taught him. I want to be the best role model so that way he can also hopefully, pass his experiences onto his children one day. My father is amazing, but I can’t say I have those same memories. Not because he didn’t try, but he traveled for work. Time spent together was short and chaotic. I want to spend every moment I can with River, because one day he’ll be too busy, and i’ll be too old.
How would you use the $25,000?
This money would go towards buying River the childhood home he deserves. We are currently renters, and while I am appreciative to have a roof over our heads, I want River to have a place run around with his dogs and make memories the last the rest of his life. This money would being going towards the down payment to help us make this next step. Thank you
