Coaching for a Better Tomorrow

On December 1, 2026, the ICF Foundation will join the global movement of #GivingTuesday, a day that celebrates generosity, community, and collective impact. Much like #GivingTuesday, our mission goes beyond financial giving. It’s about fueling transformation and creating sustainable, positive change around the world for generations to come.

At the ICF Foundation, we believe in the power of coaching to create lasting social impact. Through initiatives like Ignite, Special Projects, and scholarship opportunities, we connect professional coaches with organizations working to make the world a better place.

One example of the ripple effect coaching has can be seen in our Ignite Initiative collaboration with Dress for Success Seattle. By introducing coaching to their team, staff members gained confidence, refined their communication skills, and developed new strategies for supporting clients. This partnership didn’t just strengthen service delivery, it deepened connections, improved outcomes, and fostered personal and professional growth at every level.

This is the power of coaching.

One gift can go further than you can imagine.

One gift can go further than you can imagine.

A gift can open the door to coaching education.

That education can equip a coach to serve others.

One coaching session can strengthen a leader.

A stronger leader can strengthen an organization.

And a stronger organization can create change throughout a community.

That’s the power of investing in coaching.

This Giving Tuesday, join the ICF Foundation as we support coaching for social impact around the world. Make your gift today and see what your support can make possible.

What Your Support Makes Possible

Different people. Different places. Different experiences.

Each story demonstrates what can happen when people believe in the power of coaching and help make it accessible to others.

A Belief in Coaching as a Force for Good.

For Deepa Shahi, supporting the ICF Foundation is an extension of her belief that coaching can help people communicate more thoughtfully, lead with greater intention and contribute to a more connected world.

More Than “Leftovers.”

For leaders at U&I Trust in India, professional coaching once felt out of reach. Through the Ignite Initiative, coaching created space to pause, align around shared goals, and lead with greater clarity.

Paying It Forward.

For Sophia Casey, supporting coaching education is about paying forward the opportunities others once gave her and creating impact in communities she may never see.

One Scholarship. A Lifetime of Impact.

Meet Misk, Kayla, Nicholas and Fiona. Four aspiring coaches from around the world whose scholarships helped remove financial barriers to professional coaching education.

Your Gift Helps Create the Next Story

These stories begin in different places, but they share something important: Someone helped make an opportunity possible.

Your gift helps the ICF Foundation expand access to professional coaching and support programs that equip people and organizations to create positive social impact.

Help Our Message Reach Further

A financial gift isn’t the only way to support Giving Tuesday. When you share an ICF Foundation story with your network, you introduce someone new to the transformative power of coaching.

And it can start with you.

Give coaching the power to create change.
