Together We Can End The Negative Effects Caused By Fatherlessness and Boys Growing Up Without A MENtor.

Since The Character Company was founded in 2013, we’ve been chasing one ambitious goal - Ending the negative effects caused by fatherlessness. And while the crisis is huge, we are optimistic. We know how to solve the problem and make progress with every boy we MENtor, thanks to the help of generous supporters. If we work together, we believe every boy will have access to a MENtor, maybe even in our lifetime.

Our target group is boys between the ages of 5 - 12 years old as an intake age, that are not living with their biological father and do not have a positive male role model in their lives.

We focus on long-term mentoring and relationship-building to achieve our goals, instilling 5 specific values: courage, kindness, self-discipline, honesty, and respect.
