Looking forward to 2026, thankful for everything we achieved in 2025.

As we reflect on this year, we want to extend our heartfelt thank you to our incredible community.

Your continued support, encouragement, and belief in the importance of fathers has made a meaningful difference in the lives of families throughout our community.

This season reminds us that strong fathers help build strong families—and strong families help build thriving communities. Because of you, we’ve been able to show up, stand in the gap, and walk alongside fathers in powerful ways.

From all of us at the Fatherhood Network and the KBGA - Kalamazoo Black Golf Association we wish you a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays filled with joy, peace, and time with the people you love.

We look forward to continuing this work together and supporting fathers and youth even more in the new year. 

THANK YOU for being part of our village. 💙

Building Connections-Expanding Our Vision 🏌🏾‍♂️

This week, members of the Kalamazoo Black Golf Association and Fatherhood Network traveled to Florida to visit a series of incredible golf courses — not just to play, but to learn, connect, and build.

From walking fairways with course directors to sharing conversations with teaching pros, this trip opened doors to new possibilities.

We encountered innovative youth programs, mentorship ideas, and training spaces that inspired us to think even bigger about how we serve youth, men, and fathers back home.

New partnerships, shared learning, and a renewed commitment to bringing high quality golf and life skills education and opportunities to our Kalamazoo community.

A huge thank you to Reunion Resort, Orange County National Golf Center and Lodge (host of LIV Golf and the Korn Ferry Tour), Hawk's Landing Golf Club for their hospitality and expertise. 🏌🏾‍♂️⛳️

We’re excited to bring these insights back as we continue to grow the game — one father, one youth, one community at a time.
