IICF is sharing the warmth this fall! Through Thanksgiving, IICF will be hosting an industry-wide coat drive, benefiting One Warm Coat. Shelter from the elements is a basic need. Currently 37 million, or 11% of all Americans are living in poverty and struggling to afford basic necessities. One Warm Coat believes in each person’s right to shelter from the elements and is committed to sharing warmth, one coat at a time.

NFP announced it will continue its sponsorship of the WellChild Awards. The event honors remarkable children and young people with exceptional health needs. The Awards, administered by WellChild, the national charity for seriously ill children, will be attended by the charity’s patron, Prince Harry, The Duke of Sussex, who will deliver remarks.
