our mission
No Longer Fatherless exists to recruit, train, and match mentors with young men (ages 6-19) growing up without a father figure in Palm Coast and throughout Volusia & Flagler Counties. Through weekly one-to-one mentoring, life skills classes, and group events, we help Palm Coast youth develop strong character, leadership abilities, and the tools to become committed fathers and community leaders.
We're committed to being transparent, efficient, and responsible stewards of every donation. Because every Palm Coast young man deserves a positive male role model who believes in his potential.
