Financial Foundations of Virginia, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit public charity that is dedicated to improving financial literacy and education for high school and college students, socially and economically disadvantaged populations, and anyone in financial distress. We are proudly based in Virginia but our online capabilities allow us to provide education to a wide audience.
Financial Literacy is an inexplicably huge problem in the United States. In 2022 a TIAA Institute-GFLEC Personal Finance Index showed that, on average, adults only correctly answered 50% of the 28 basic money survey questions. Even worse, roughly 23% of the participants failed to correctly answer more than 25% of the questions.
According to the World Economic Forum, the Financial Literacy rate in the United States is 48% as of 2024, down 2% since 2022.
At Financial Foundations of Virginia, we believe that every individual has the right to E.A.R.N. their financial well-being! If you would like to learn more, please reach out!

Our Story
Financial Foundations of Virginia, Inc. was formed out of a shared desire to assist underprivileged, disadvantaged and general populations with comprehending personal finance. Many people wish to build credit, buy a car, buy a home and invest in their future, but the vast majority has no idea where to start.
Our group of industry leaders have come together to help equalize the playing field- to provide knowledge and education in this greatly underserviced area.
