Iron Kid Ministries created the "Coaches Count" initiative to help support coaches in schools and the community who are doing it the "Right Way". Our goal is to provide financial support through grants to assist these coaches with their programs so they can reach as many kids as possible. We feel that coaches are the direct line to the needs of so many children in our schools and communities and they have the ability to determine where they can make the greatest impact. We are always looking for GREAT coaches to support so if you know of one, please consider nominating them for a Coaches Count Grant.

My mom was diagnosed with cancer when I was just 2 years old. I am now 5 and my mom died just over a year ago. I have been very lucky that my aunt and uncle have been raising me but I know it hasn't been easy. I am so glad that through Iron Kid Ministries I have been provided the opportunity to take dance classes. It provides me an outlet and plus my mom loved to dance!

I am 7yrs old and my parents just went through a rough divorce. My grandma takes care of me a lot of the time. She doesn't have much but she does everything she can for me. I am so grateful to have a scholarship from Iron Kid Ministries that allows me to play soccer. My coach has had such a positive impact on me during this difficult time.

My 6 year old brother was diagnosed with cancer 11 months ago. It has been very tough on our family. I like doing karate but I almost had to stop going because we needed money to help my brother. Thankfully IKM offered to pay for my karate while my brother was going through treatment. I am so happy I get to continue karate.
