The Real Men Who Are Always 'There to Care'
Reflective of the many men who are stepping into these roles, Dove Men+Care is releasing a NEW film called, 'There to Care,' a collection of four home videos posted by real people, capturing real men who embody the many strong male figures who go above and beyond to care for others. Moments captured in the film, 'There to Care' include:

- Teacher – Barry White Jr., Charlotte, NC
- A fifth-grade teacher at Ashley Park Elementary in the Charlotte-Mecklenburg school district in North Carolina has a personalized handshake for each of his students, and he greets them with it at the start of each day.
- Uncle – Scott Tarabilda, Seattle, WA
- Anna Tarabilda's son, Cohen, loves his uncle Scott, who would take time out from being with his friends in college to visit and spend time with his young nephew.
- Coach – Larry Gilmer, Russellville, AL
- As the head middle school football coach at Russellville Middle School, Coach Larry Gilmer treats each of his players and everyone in the community like family, regularly reminding them all how much he loves them.
