Operation: Spread Love
Investing in Our Future, One Classroom at a Time

Today, I had the distinct honor of blessing my daughter’s class, her teachers, and the security guards at DOROTHY I HEIGHT ELEMENTARY SCHOOL in Washington, D.C., with holiday gifts. This act of gratitude and love is part of a new initiative close to my heart: Operation: Spread Love, an outreach effort led by me and The Servicemen to recognize and uplift the unsung heroes in our children’s lives.

The concept is simple yet powerful: fathers (and anyone else who feels called) should sponsor their children’s classrooms and caretakers. Why? Because the education sector is one of the most thankless professions, yet these individuals are stewards of America’s greatest national treasures—our children.

By sponsoring a classroom, you’re not just giving gifts; you’re making an investment in your child’s future, in the futures of their peers, and in the entire village that nurtures them. You’re sending a clear message to educators and caretakers: We see you, we value you, and we appreciate you.

This initiative is more than a gesture; it’s a challenge to reflect on your role in the village it takes to raise a child. Where do you stand in the tribal structure that shapes your child’s future?

For me, I’ve chosen to be the chief of my tribe. I’m ensuring our shared future by investing in those who hold it in their hands daily—our teachers, our caretakers, and the classmates who will grow alongside my daughter to build tomorrow’s world.

So, I ask: How will you spread the love this season?

Join me in showing the stewards of our children’s futures that they are appreciated and valued. It’s a simple act with immeasurable impact. Together, we can create a ripple effect of gratitude, love, and community investment.
