Business Owners & Coaches

Convened at Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas Oct. 27-30, 2024

Over the course of four days, they heard from inspirational speakers, visited vendor tables, won awards at the Gala, and deepened their connections with each other. It all started on Sunday when 75+ business coaches gathered for a North American Coach Conference (NACC), where they fine-tuned their coaching skills and learned about new releases from ActionCOACH. During the NACC, ActionCOACH Foundation Chair, Tom Dougherty, presented a brief update on Foundation milestones and opportunities, passing out checklists for our 'Coaching for a Cause' and YESS programs, as well as postcards highlighting the Foundation's fundraising efforts during BizX.

The Foundation raised over $70,000 in profit during the event, far exceeding the goal of $50,000 for 500 new students between the ages of 12 to 22. Fundraising activities included a Golf Tournament (click for more photos!), a 50/50 Raffle, a Silent Auction and a Live Auction during the Gala.

The Silent Auction was a crowd stopper, featuring wine & chocolate baskets, bourbon, artwork and sports & entertainment memorabilia.

Thanks go out to all those who donated items and those who participated in the bidding. The winning bidders got some great deals AND helped the Foundation raise more funds for the kids.

Gabriel Moore, posed here with Karen Callahan from the Foundation, won the 50/50 Raffle at the Gala.

He was presented with an envelope for $1,120, which he promptly ran up onstage to donate to the Foundation.

We love you, Gabe!

All raffle winners were automatically included in a book drawing at the Foundation Table. The three winners were: Julius Daukas, Nigel Elkan and Ryan Rhodes. Congrats, gentlemen!

The Live Auction featured a fishing trip for 2 in British Columbia and a package consisting of all five online events in Brad Sugars' Entrepreneur University. John Hutmacher and Lauren Sugars both won tying bids for the fishing trip. Brad opened his Entrepreneur University package to ten winning bidders: Julie Andy, Andre Cummings, Sonya Morgan, John Mueller, Margo Pieper, Everado Recendiz, Jacob Roach, Ray Skelton, Benjamin Verkilen, Raul Wong. Thanks to all of our bidders and congrats to the donors.

BIG THANKS go out to Brad Sugars and Phil Dawson of Legacy Lodge for their BIG Live Auction contributions!!!
