Guntersville DADs (Dedicated and Active Dads) is a volunteer organization founded by Tyson Littlejohn with a simple but powerful mission: to support Guntersville City Schools by showing up. We believe that when fathers, grandfathers, and positive male role models become actively involved in their schools, it creates a stronger community and a better educational experience for every student.
Each year, Guntersville DADs organizes its signature Back-to-School Work Day, bringing together volunteers from across the community to prepare school campuses for the upcoming school year. Volunteers spend the day landscaping, spreading mulch, pressure washing, painting, assembling furniture, completing maintenance projects, and tackling countless other tasks that help ensure our schools are safe, welcoming, and ready for students and staff.
Beyond improving school facilities, Guntersville DADs strives to model servant leadership for our children, demonstrate appreciation for educators, and foster a culture of community involvement. What began as a small group of fathers has grown into a community-wide effort involving dads, grandparents, students, local businesses, and volunteers who share a commitment to supporting Guntersville City Schools.
The success of our work depends on the generosity of sponsors and community partners. Every contribution—large or small—helps provide materials, supplies, equipment, and resources needed to make a lasting impact on our schools. Together, we are investing in our children, supporting our educators, and strengthening the future of Guntersville.
