But it’s the supportive coach-friends and collaborators who have made membership for me priceless.	//s3.amazonaws.com/ClubExpressClubFiles/907122/graphics/BevLutz1_669008720.jpg

Loretta Diez Scholarship

Loretta Diez Coaching Training Scholarship

ICF Minnesota is on a mission to promote the development of a diverse community of coaches dedicated to serving others inclusively and equitably. One way we strive to do this is through our Loretta Diez Coaching Training Scholarship to help make becoming a coach financially easier.

We established the Loretta Diez Coach Training Scholarship in honor of Loretta Diez, a former ICF Minnesota coach and board member who passed away in 2024. Loretta exemplified the character traits we wish to honor, celebrate, and embody. She was paralyzed in a car accident at the age of 22 and her attitude, accomplishments, contributions, and approach to life inspire us to pursue our dreams with courage, tenacity, resilience, honesty, kindness, humor, integrity and hope.

Through this scholarship we hope to honor her life and help usher in the next generation of incredible coaches. The nomination window is now open and will close on July 24, 2026.

If you or anyone you know would like to apply, please apply here or reach out with any questions to Presidentelect@icfminnesota.org.
