Great Minds began as an education advocacy group and became a public benefit corporation selling knowledge-rich math, literacy and science programs. Its wager is unusually concrete: give teachers coherent materials, then stay for the difficult work of implementation.
Goalsetter is a New York-based financial education and banking platform that teaches American kids, teens, and families how to save, spend smart, and invest. Founded by Tanya Van Court, it blends FDIC-insured savings, a 'Learn to Earn' debit card, and pop-culture-flavored financial quizzes mapped to national standards. The company also runs Goalsetter Classroom, a K-12 curriculum used by schools, framing financial literacy as a tool for closing the racial wealth gap.
