Father’s Club Website Changes: We’re Cooking with Gas Now Boys!

By Jason Terry, Board Member for Father’s Club

We’ve recently made quite a few changes to the Father’s Club website to make it more effective and easier to use. Let’s review the three biggest changes!

NOTIFICATION AREA

At the top of our new home page is a “notice” section that will have the most important upcoming initiative. Currently, it is December of 2025, so year end giving is incredibly important for our organization. In the notification area we have a Donate Now button and another button that links to other ways people can support Father’s Club financially.

In the months to come, we will be changing what appears in the Notification Area so that you always know what the Next Big Thing is going to be. That could be an upcoming Mission Cup Golf Event. Or an all Chapter gathering to throw bags in a park. Or a new seasonal merch store being opened for you to get your Father’s Club gear. Whenever you visit our website, you will always know what our biggest upcoming event or initiative is going to be.

JOIN NOW

The next section of our home page is the Join Now section. This also has some statistics on the current reach of Father’s Club. The Join Now button takes you to the Benefaster login. Benefaster is the Communications Platform that we use to manage event organization and chapter communications across all our chapters. If you haven’t signed up for Benefaster yet, you really need to do so. It has been in development for 2+ years, and we are adding new features and functionality all the time. Event notifications and reminders? CHECK. The ability to message other dads in your chapter? CHECK. And so much more.

There are two quick ways to get to Benefaster from the home page… the Join Now button as well as the “Benefaster Login” link in the top menu of the website. To learn more about Benefaster, click here.

BLOGS

The third main section of our home page highlights our most recent stories. (The previous version of our home page required quite a bit of scrolling to get to these stories.) One of the most important assets we have on the website is our weekly blog and these stories need to be more visible! Our blog posts give you a heartwarming glimpse into the many things that are happening across our organization, and we wanted those to be more front and center.

The home page is significantly shorter, and you can still get to everything you need to be able to get to easily.

One last tip…

We like to remind people that we have a Brand Kit available on our website with high resolution versions of our logo and the branding rules for using the various versions of our logo. With the Father’s Club brand kit, you can design banners, handouts and even have your own Father’s Club merchandise created with a promotional products company. You can get to the Father’s Club Brand Kit under About | Branding Kit or by clicking here.

Always Improving

We will always be looking for ways to improve the way we communicate across our organization. Efficient and effective communication will allow us to impact more dads and more kids in a positive way. And that is why we exist! If you have any thoughts or feedback on these efforts, we would love to hear from you in the comments below or on our social media posts. Thanks for being on this journey with us!
