PLEASE HELP US CHANGE THE WORLD

These quotes are from just a few of the finest minds our world has ever known, expressing the essence of our beliefs, and the basis of our goals to CHANGE THE WORLD.

Nelson Mandela claimed that “education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.”

Benjamin Franklin is quoted as saying An investment in knowledge pays the best interest.

JFK told us that "Education Is the Advancement of KNOWLEDGE  and TRUTH".

More than 2400 years ago, Confucius was quoted saying “Education breeds confidence. Confidence breeds hope. Hope breeds peace.”

And Ben Franklin again, saying "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn."

We are dedicated to involving all people in this wonderful world by providing an easy access to financial knowledge in a way that they can learn and enjoy the benefits that this wonderful world of ours provides. We are dedicated to help improve the word through education that will raise up all people to a better quality of life, and of truth.

 Welcome to The Financial Awareness Foundation Website

We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that was formed for the purpose of significantly helping to solve a major social problem dealing with the lack of financial awareness and financial literacy.

The Foundation serves as a nonpolitical “financial awareness advocate” for the general public, the financial services and nonprofit professionals, and their organizations, educational institutions, employers and municipalities.

    We believe that teaching financial literacy and the essential principles to smart personal financial management – the foundation to personal finance knowledge - are very important. This gives people the tools of empowerment to:

  • Make better informed and productive everyday money decisions
  • Save time and money with their financial advisors and service providers
  • Have the best opportunities to reach and maintain their personal / family financial dreams
  • Enjoy a financially secure debt free future
  • Advance their philanthropy and legacy plans.

We are taking an active leadership role to recognize the thought leading organizations and individuals that are championing improving financial awareness and financial literacy. We are then uniting them with other associations, organizations, nonprofits, educational institutions, municipalities, and employers to actively focus their vast community resources into  The Improving Financial Awareness & Financial Literacy Movement with its concentrated personal finance content media blitz through the strategic venues of:

  • National Financial Literacy Month (April) and then 6 months later during
  • National Estate Planning Awareness Month / Week (3rd week in October)

    • The strategy is to touch the majority of the general public, financial service and nonprofit professionals and their organizations at least twice a year through these strategic campaign venues, with educational and motivating reminders to get and keep their financial, estate, and gift plans in order.

    The Foundation further delivers and develops exceptional educational content for the public and to professionals, nonprofits, and educational institutions that support the public’s financial, estate and gift planning needs.

    Below you can download a free set of Personal Finance Publications designed to empower you to know more about your money and help you make better everyday informed financial decisions!


    These publications are designed to provide the reader with the essential principles of smart personal financial management along with powerful tools to address every day money decisions in a more informed manner. Thus giving the reader the best possibility to achieve and maintain their personal financial freedom, security, while advancing their personal philanthropy.

    These publications also make an excellent tool for financial service and nonprofit professionals to use with clients, prospects, donors and employees.
