New York Life’s charitable foundation has committed $15M over three years to its Coaching the Future campaign.
The initiative will "expand access to trained coaches and mentors for young people across the country,” with a focus on three areas:
On-field coaching
Off-field mentorship, life skills development
All-abilities coaching and inclusion
The initiative aims to train 25K coaches and mentors. Four organizations have received strategic grants so far.
Among them: Boys & Girls Clubs of America and Positive Coaching Alliance.
BCGA’s funding will go toward coach training and sports facilities upgrades. PCA will kick off a coach training campaign with a rollout of 1K free virtual training slots.
