Strengthening Minds,
Building Futures
At the I Believe in Me Foundation, we are passionate about supporting programs that inspire personal and family growth. One of our earliest projects was funding a video version of a youth empowerment program, now featured as a 7-part series on the BelieveBecomeBeYou.com platform.
We want to take a moment to lovingly acknowledge and honor two incredible pioneers whose work inspired this path:
The Infinite Possibilities program by Mike DooleyThe I Believe in Me program by Rebecca Psigoda
Their dedication to personal transformation has made a lasting impact, and we are grateful to stand on the shoulders of such visionary leaders.
While the I Believe in Me Foundation shares a name with one of these programs, we are a separate nonprofit entity with a broader mission: to fund and expand access to transformative growth experiences—whether created by individuals, families, or coaches ready to uplift others.
We believe there is space for all of us in this work. We celebrate the beautiful contributions already out in the world and remain committed to collaboration, not competition, as we help more people grow into who they’re meant to be.
