Fathers day taken #fathersdaytaken ad campaign by Dove Men+Care

"Father's Day Taken," the latest pro-fatherhood fundraising initiative by our longtime partner Dove Men+Care, remembers the thousands of black dads who have lost their lives due to racism and violence, and the families left behind. DM+C established the the Fathers Day Taken Fund to invest $1 million to support these families in need.

If advertising is a legitimate measure of a society’s current desires, targets and priorities, then fathers are indeed a desired, targeted priority, according to a new study. Yahoo, alongside strategy firm Audience Theory, recently released “The New Face of Fatherhood,” a study that delves into the difference between modern Millennial and Gen X fatherhood. In it, they identify who the modern father is, how they see themselves, and what their relationship is to things like tech and advertising. We've noted before that you can find more active fathers in commercials now than ever before, … [Read more...]

They also highlight the fact that they "want to ensure that Dad’s care is highly visible — that fathers are shown for the deeply caring men they are, and that all dads grow stronger as a result." … [Read more...]
