The dads at Fathers Building Futures built my family a dinner table that was built with the same love that is gathered around the table at each meal.Thank you.

So I needed a countertop for a new project in my kitchen at home. I remembered the incredible work I saw that was crafted by the men of the Fathers Building Futures program at PB&J Family Services. My Counter top needed to be 2 feet by 4 feet and at least 2 inches thick. What I found when I arrived at the workshop was more than I could have ever expected. I was given at least 5 choices of wood with recommendations from the craftsmen based on my description of intended uses. I made my selection and a week later I picked up a counter top that was highly polished and finished, crafted to my specifications and ready to use. It has become a conversation piece in my home and I continue to refer people to Fathers Building Futures where I know that the men take great pride in their work and guarantee the finest quality product. I love my counter top!
