After a long and tedious year, we finally got our 501c3 status! We are officially a charitable organization,
which means we can receive donations and apply for grants. Immediately after getting the 501c3, we
started working with a consultant in order to find some grants we can apply
to. With this new means of funding, we hope
to be able to grow the organization at a much faster rate than was possible
when we were funding everything from our own pocket. We hope to eventually be
able to hire people and train them to present our program, so we can expand and
reach as many kids as possible. It seems
like we’ve done a lot as it is, but we will do much more in the future with the
help of donations and grants. This is
only the beginning for the Wealth Education Foundation!
