You can help boys without fathers grow into good men with Vitality MoveToGive and The Character Company.
The Character Company aims to positively impact families, communities and society, via a long-term mentorship programs – with the singular mission of raising boys to be good men.
To achieve their goals, the national team of volunteers focuses on long-term mentoring and relationship building, instilling five specific values – courage, kindness, self-discipline, honesty and respect.
“We primarily work with young boys between the ages of five and 10 as an intake age, but our long-term mentorship approach means that we will continue to be part of their lives throughout their school career and beyond,” says founder Jaco van Schalkwyk.
