Dallas School Needed 50 Volunteer "Dads" And They Got 600 Instead

    All the feels.

    Dade Middle School in Dallas, Texas held a "Breakfast With Dads" event for boys on Dec. 28, and they were afraid nobody would come.

    Rev. Donald Ray Parish Jr. tells NBCDFW that they were asked to get a few extra guys to go to the event to serve as surrogate fathers or mentors to boys whose fathers couldn't make it, or don't have a dad in their lives.

    Instead of 50 extra dads attending the event, about 600 men showed up!

    One of the guys who attended said he answered the call to attend the event because it was important for him to give back.

    Some men even took extra ties to teach their new young mentees how to properly tie a tie.

    The "Breakfast with Dads" event ended with everyone who attended in locked arms to commemorate the bond they had all formed.
