Singleton Foundation
The mission of the Singleton Foundation For Financial Literacy & Entrepreneurship is to make financial competence fun and engaging for everyone by using the power of entertainment to capture attention, create change, promote entrepreneurship, and to inspire individual achievement. The Singleton Foundation believes economic freedom and financial empowerment is achievable by all. Our programs are designed to inspire, entertain, and transform money talk from boring and taboo to something compelling and socially relevant. We believe that in this way we can empower individuals to take charge of their financial future with confidence
The foundation was created by Will and Cary Singleton for two reasons: to create a viable means to combat the dire problem of financial illiteracy in our society; and to promote entrepreneurship as a way to inspire individual achievement.
These goals are complementary and essential to our dream of financial freedom for all Americans. The high percentage of US citizens with significant student debt, the lack of economic and financial literacy education available in schools, and the alarming statistics about the number of Americans living paycheck-to-paycheck coupled with the need to prepare our citizens for the careers and opportunities presented by rapid technological advancements motivated them to take action.
Will and Cary believe that each of us can become the CEO of our own lives with access to education and resources, and have dedicated themselves to focusing on programs which they hope will have a positive long-term impact on the health of the nation.
