Who We Are

The TKI Foundation is a nonprofit organization committed to expanding access to holistic financial literacy and personal empowerment. Our flagship program, Thrive Wisely, addresses the intersection of money, wellness, and values.

Our work begins in East Cleveland — a community deeply impacted by systemic disinvestment. As we grow, our vision is national: to empower individuals in underserved neighborhoods across the U.S. with the tools they need to thrive as we eradicate the wealth gap.
