Financial Freedom Changes Everything.
The economic success of our country hinges on the ability of all Americans to thrive. Yet, 7 out of 10 Americans — more than 200 million people — are financially unhealthy, struggling to make ends meet. Standing in their way to achieving Financial Freedom are obstacles and barriers, which can limit their ability to lead lives filled with choice, dignity, and prosperity. The Motley Fool Foundation is devoted to changing this narrative. We are committed to finding, funding, and building equitable pathways to Financial Freedom. Our goal is to ensure that all 200 million Americans living paycheck to paycheck have the best opportunity to be smarter, happier, and richer.
The Pathway to
Financial Freedom: All Chutes and No Ladders.
Our research has shown us that a path to Financial Freedom exists, but it isn’t equitable for everyone. Only one-third of those who take the journey are successful, leaving the other two-thirds behind. Here’s why.

Education and Financial Freedom: Navigating the Intersection.
We will be posting the recording shortly here shortly.
September 27, 2023, 1 p.m. (ET)
What happens when education intersects with Financial Freedom?
Numerous barriers arise when we examine education: alarming costs of higher education, socioeconomic influences, and the escalating burden of student debt, to name a few. What if we shift the narrative and search for solutions to break down those barriers? Let’s take a deep dive into financial literacy as a fundamental pillar of Financial Freedom, the crucial role of mentorship in a student’s journey, and the significance of working together to co-create solutions. Join our host, David Gardner, Co-Founder of The Motley Fool and Chair of The Motley Fool Foundation, and Christopher Morphew, Ph.D., Dean, Johns Hopkins School of Education, Office of Education Reform.
August 1-2: Rule Breaker Roundtable, #12RuleBreakers12Mos
Earlier this month, our Rule Breakers gathered for the Rule Breaker Roundtable at The Motley Fool Headquarters in Alexandria, VA. This event, hosted by The Foundation, was crafted to enable our social innovators to connect, exchange ideas, and access tools vital for scaling their organizations. As we transition into the fall, our goal is to expand the inaugural cohort to 12 Rule Breakers by September 30. We invite you to support this initiative and donate today to help us reach our goal: #12RuleBreakers12mos. Enjoy this short video capturing some of The Foundation’s work in action!
