Why Just $60? Because Changing Lives Shouldn’t Be Left to Hope

At Man 2 Man – Urban Youth Advocate, we do the work that so many say needs to be done:

• We walk with fathers who are returning home after incarceration.

• We stand with sons who have never known what a father’s love feels like.

• We fight cycles of trauma, poverty, and silence — and build men into leaders, protectors, and providers.

But here’s the hard truth: We can’t do it alone.

Everyone Agrees… But Few Step Up

You’ve probably heard someone say, “We need more programs like this.” Maybe you’ve said it yourself.
You’ve probably nodded at a post about fatherless homes, youth violence, or mass incarceration and thought, “That’s a shame.”

But here’s the question we must ask — lovingly, but directly:

If you believe the work is important… why not support it?

Is it time? Is it money? Is it that someone else will do it?

Here’s the reality: We aren’t funded by big corporations. We’re funded by community. People just like you who believe a dollar can change a life — and that action speaks louder than sympathy.

What Can $60 Do?

Right now, we’re asking 1,000 people to give $60. That’s it.
Not $600. Not $6,000. Just $60 — the cost of a night out, a tank of gas, or your favorite pair of sneakers.

But what can your $60 do?

• Sponsor a man’s emotional intelligence workbook — helping him understand and manage emotions for the first time in his life.

• Provide a week of training in parenting and conflict resolution to a father trying to reunite with his children.

• Supply a reentry care backpack with hygiene items, bus passes, and fresh hope.

• Keep our doors open when funding gaps threaten to shut them.

You Can Also Give Time

Maybe $60 isn’t possible for you right now — but can you give time?

• Can you help us share this campaign with 10 people?

• Can you volunteer once a month?

• Can you mentor a young man for one hour a week?

This isn’t just about money. It’s about belief.

If Not Us, Then Who?

If we don’t invest in our fathers, sons, and brothers — who will?

If we don’t believe these men are worth the effort — who will?

If we don’t fund the work we claim to care about — what are we really saying?
