What grown woman doesn’t consider herself a Daddy’s Girl? Award-winning journalist can attest to the special bond that he and his teenager daughter share and how their relationship inspired Daddy’s Promise, his nonprofit organization devoted to building and maintaining meaningful and strong relationships between fathers and their daughters.

In June, Gordon will celebrate the first annual Daddy’s Promise, Fathers/Daughters Dance in New York City.After appearing on the sydicated radio show, Steve Harvey Morning Show, tickets for the dance sold out.

“I have been overwhelmed by the response we have seen to “Daddy Promise” and the excitement that has been generated by the dance. The dance practically sold out in a couple of hours!,” says Gordon. “I am happy that we are giving a spotlight to this special relationship and I know that we are going to have a fun time at the dance and we will build a memory that will last a lifetime for everyone who attends!”

Fortunately, Daddy’s Promise was able to reserve an additional limited amount of tickets for those fathers who want to attend with their daughters.Visit www.daddyspromise.com to find out how you nab a ticket.
