ABOUT US
Welcome to Fatherhood Inc. or WTF for short is a nonprofit organization created by Sir Royce Briales and Dr. Raheem Young to help dads of all ages showcase their superpowers to the masses.
The concept was birthed out of discussions around the pressures and feelings of uncertainty Sir Royce and Dr. Raheem experienced when they were expecting their first children. They formed WTF to provide new and seasoned dads with a forum to discuss their parenting experiences.
Dr. Raheem Young
Dr. Raheem Young is a husband and father of three. He had his first child at the age of 21 and second at 23. Being married and having two children by the age of 23 was a maturing and eye-opening experience filled with many ups and downs. His wife and children have been some of his greatest teachers. They have taught him a lot about himself and have shown him firsthand the misconceptions he held about manhood and fatherhood. He wanted to form Welcome to Fatherhood to assist other dads in their fatherhood journey by sharing with them his struggles and triumphs.
MISSION STATEMENT
Our mission is to strengthen the community by providing mental health, family engagement, and self-empowerment services to fathers.
Empowered fathers and improved family and communal dynamics.
Sir Royce Briales
Highly dedicated and fun-loving, Sir Royce Briales is a powerhouse entrepreneur whose underlying mission is to give fathers the quality advice, support, and empowerment they deserve. As the Co-Founder of Welcome to Fatherhood (WTF), a spearheading nonprofit organization where new and experienced fathers of all ages can showcase their superpowers to the masses. He enjoys building a strong community that gives both dads and their kids the best grounds to thrive on.
Born and raised in a two-parent home until the age of 12, Sir Royce learned early on the true meaning behind commitment, resilience, and a strong work ethic. These core principles later became the catalyst to venture out to explore the world. To date, he has been to Ireland, Rome, Mexico, and Aruba and plans on checking Africa off his bucket list next.
Sir Royce is no rookie when it comes to the realities of fatherhood. As a single father helping raise 3 children, he fully understands the complexities that come with being a dad. However, he also knows how to overcome mental barriers and obstacles that arise through shared experiences and advanced meditation.
This ultimately motivated Sir Royce to help dads reach that same level of balance, presence, and clarity. He is a living testament that proves that seeking help is not a sign of weakness but a strength. Never forget that it takes a village to raise a child, and he is honored to invite you to the Welcome to Fatherhood village.
Overall, nothing makes Sir Royce happier than being able to help new and seasoned fathers reach their full potential with family engagement. He has a genuine passion for what he does and demonstrates that by building his nonprofit on a foundation of authenticity, integrity, and trust where fathers from every corner can come together to learn and unwind.
