FATHER OF FIVE MAKES A DIFFERENCE IN COMMUNITY

Joseph Williams, husband and father of five, wanted to be a more involved father, so he started to become active at his children’s school. Williams began doing lunchroom duty and moved into reading books in the classroom. In 2017, he got the idea to start Mr. Dad’s Father’s Club, a non-profit organization which promotes literacy among children and which provides a male role model in the lives of children.
