Beards & Braids

Beards & Braids is a Salem, Oregon-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to strengthening relationships between fathers and daughters through meaningful experiences, community connections, and hands-on activities. Serving families throughout Salem, Keizer, and surrounding communities, we bring dads, daughters, and father figures together through monthly gatherings, educational workshops, outdoor adventures, and special events. Our mission is to help dads show up and daughters grow strong. We believe every father deserves a supportive community, which is why our events follow a pay-what-you-can approach, ensuring finances never prevent a family from participating. Beards are optional. Being a father isn't.
