Terence Mentor has a confession. He used to be jealous of the bond that his two-year-old shared with his wife. When Mentor made the admission on social media, his fears resonated with other parents.“People are full of advice for first-time moms,” he says. “But there’s little out there on how to be a good dad.” Mentor decided to create an honest handbook for fathers like him. The result is AfroDaddy, his online meeting place to share the challenges and triumphs of fatherhood.

Mentor draws from his experience of fostering 14 children with his wife, Julie. In the past four years, they opened their home and hearts to give children from welfare agencies the care they deserve. Mentor is now a full-time dad to Liam and Eli.
