Our Story

How FutureReadyTeens began

FutureReadyTeens Foundation began with a simple idea: every student deserves access to practical financial education, regardless of their background.

The organization was originally started by Benjamin Palmet, who recognized that many students graduate without learning the financial skills needed for everyday life.

As Ben prepared for college, leadership transitioned to Ander Yang, who expanded the organization's educational programming, digital outreach, and community partnerships while continuing its original mission.

Today, the Foundation continues growing its impact through educational workshops, community partnerships, and digital financial literacy content.

Our Progress

FutureReadyTeens Foundation is incorporated as a Kansas nonprofit corporation and is currently pursuing federal recognition as a tax-exempt organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
