Mentoring and serving fatherless youth in our own communities — showing up consistently in the places we live, coach, and worship.
Break the Huddle Ministries
Breaking the cycle of fatherlessness — one man at a time
A nation of athletes and men who don't watch from the sidelines — raising the next generation of fathers who serve, lead, and stand in the gap for the fatherless.
The Problem
A fatherlessness crisis
18.4 million children — 1 in 4 in America — are growing up without a father in the home.
Fatherlessness sits at the root of nearly every negative outcome a child can face: poverty, poor performance in school, addiction, incarceration, and despair. The cycle repeats generation after generation — unless someone steps in to break it.

The Hope
But there is hope
Across the country, athletes and men are refusing to watch from the sidelines. They're showing up. They're mentoring. They're serving. They're becoming the fathers a generation never had.
That's what Break the Huddle Ministries exists to mobilize.
