SONday — A Treetop Initiative

Welcome to SONday

SONday is the heart of Treetop — a community movement dedicated to uplifting our sons, our families, and our neighborhoods through positive leadership, weekly inspiration, and hands-on service.

Every SONday, we come together with the same mission:

empower, educate, heal, and build.

From motivational messages to community support, SONday is a weekly reminder that we rise higher when we rise together.

🌱 What SONday Stands For

  • Strength — building resilient young men

  • Opportunity — creating pathways for future leaders

  • Nurturing — supporting emotional, spiritual, and mental growth

  • Development — teaching skills, literacy, discipline, and confidence

  • Awakening — inspiring transformation through community


SONday is not just a name —

…it is a lifestyle rooted in intention, consistency, and love.
