Centre for Fathering (CFF) was founded by three young fathers who share a deep conviction that a father’s parental involvement makes a tremendous difference to his child’s development.

CFF focuses on preventive social work by providing family-life education to parents at an early stage of their parenthood. There should be less need for corrective work, if we are able to help young parents cope with the demands of parenting... Having also a special focus on men, CFF majors on the need to support and equip fathers in their parenting roles.

We have intentionally opted for a setup that gives operational flexibility, so that CFF can respond optimally and quickly to the needs of our community. The needs are indeed many and the available resources are always stretched, so it helps when CFF has the freedom to decide how best to make the greatest impact, in the areas deemed of greater concern.

We hope you share our conviction on the importance of fathering in the development of healthy children and healthy families. Join us in this mission of turning the hearts of fathers towards their children and the hearts of children towards their fathers.

CFF has begun to identify a pool of volunteer Associates who can help to deliver our talks, seminars, workshops, camps and other programs and services. Additionally, there is a larger pool of volunteers who have come forward to help us in specific tasks (e.g. computer-related needs) or one-off projects (e.g. assisting to organize our conferences). We would be very pleased to meet with you or your organization to talk about CFF’s needs for volunteers.
