MEDIA ADVISORY, June 13 /Standard Newswire/ -- Fathers Do Matter, Way Beyond Father's Day! Rockland/Bergen County - Geedad Family Entertainment has taken up the cause to encourage Fathers around the world. They are launching a "THE GEEDAD: ONE MILLION DADS CAMPAIGN ®" on Father's Day with a theme song entitled "My Dad", performed by 11 year old new music sensation, "JAY-I-COOL". The campaign is designed to bring awareness to the plight of our children who are Fatherless and how it impacts many of the epidemics we face in society. This is an insurmountable problem with many different facets, but we have to begin the dialogue and come to the realization that Fathers are the Foundation of the human race. You can be a part of this unprecedented outreach on Father's Day by helping us reach One Million Dads, by downloading the song "My Dad" or sending the "My Dad" video or providing (electronic or print) media exposure. Jay-I-Cool is available to perform the "My Dad" Song live.
