Rooted in love and legacy

Caroline Lenher started Coaching for Causes in 2022 to raise money for non-profits close to her heart. The American Brain Tumor Association benefits in honor of and in memory of her dad, George. Her second cause is Big Brother’s Big Sisters, creating mentoring relationships that ignite the power and promise of youth. Caroline has been a proud “Big” since 2021. Caroline also supports the World Central Kitchen, an organization that was on the scene in Los Angeles, where she lives, to support so many impacted by the wildfires as well as the brave individuals who worked relentlessly to fight them.

Realizing that there is power in numbers, Caroline invited fellow coaches to join the program and share their stories to support the causes closest to them. Giving coaching time in exchange for supporting so many impactful, important, and meaningful causes feels to all of us like the least we can do to support those in need of coaching support as well as causes and charities making our communities and world a better place.

More than just a coaching platform, this initiative was created to channel the power of mentorship, guidance, and personal growth toward something bigger — something that makes a difference in innumerable lives around the globe.

We believe that coaching isn’t just about personal success—it’s about purpose, connection, and transformation. Whether it’s helping someone gain clarity, navigate challenges, or step into their potential, every coaching session has the ability to create a ripple effect of change. By bringing together passionate coaches and individuals who are driven by a cause, we’re not just fostering growth; we’re building a community that thrives on impact.

At Coaching for Causes, our participating coaches understand the deeper value of coaching— We see it not just as a career but as a way to give back and empower others. The work we do extends beyond traditional coaching methods; it’s about meeting people where they are, providing them with the tools and support they need, and creating lasting, meaningful change.

This mission matters because people matter. When we lift others up, we create stronger communities, foster resilience, and ignite the kind of personal and collective transformation that lasts far beyond a single session. Coaching for Causes is more than just a platform—it’s a movement, built on the belief that growth should be accessible, impactful, and aligned with the things that matter most.

And at the heart of it all, we give back. Through every coaching session, we help you reach your goals, and we raise funds for organizations supporting those most in need. By Coaching for Causes, we invest in a better future for everyone.
