Nonprofit of the Year — Fathering Together: Christopher Lewis Provides Dads with a Community of Connection

It’s perhaps the greatest personal responsibility one can undertake; however, it also can be an isolating experience if you don’t know where to turn for help. 

Parenting doesn’t come with a manual, but since 2019 a Williamston-based organization has been building safe and local communities of support and education for dads. Fathering Together is a nonprofit that offers free educational programs and consulting services to fathers around the world who are seeking to be more engaged and connected with their children and families. 

The organization was selected as the Nonprofit of the Year in the 2023 Greater Lansing Entrepreneurial Awards. 

“This award affirms the work that our organization has been doing for so many years and really energizes our whole team to continue the work that we are doing to support fathers around the world,” said Christopher Lewis, co-founder and chief information officer at Fathering Together. “At the same time, this award lights a fire under our whole organization as we look at the goals that we have for our organization and the vision that we are working to realize.”
