Community Financial Education

Robinhood is bringing classroom-based financial education to 1 million people by 2030.

Our Commitment

Too many people reach major financial transitions without the foundational knowledge to navigate them confidently. Access to high-quality, structured financial education remains unevenly distributed, particularly among students, military service members, and the K–12 educators responsible for teaching the next generation. Every long-term investor was once a first-time investor. We aim to close the knowledge gap and provide everyone the tools they need to become informed investors.

Our Programs

Athletes & Students

Money Drills®

A first-of-its-kind financial education program for college students and athletes that counts toward graduation credit. Money Drills courses are unique at each university and support student athletes in building the money management skills they need before graduating. Money Drills is active at 18 campuses across the country, including Howard University, Stanford University, and West Virginia University.

Active-Duty Military Community

Money Drills: Readiness

Active-duty service members face one of the most significant financial transitions of their lives when they leave the military. In partnership with the Donovan & Bank Foundation, Money Drills: Readiness™ delivers in-person financial education workshops on and near military bases across the United States, providing credible guidance before service members navigate the civilian financial landscape.

K-12 Education

Building Financial Foundations

Financial habits form long before college. We partner with organizations like the Council for Economic Education and FitMoney to bring financial education into K–12 classrooms, train public school teachers nationwide and scale digital tools that reach learners in and out of school.

Driving Financial Inclusion

We work alongside leading nonprofit organizations to extend financial education into classrooms, communities, and households across the country. Some of our key partner organizations include:

GreenPath Financial Wellness: GreenPath’s mission is to empower people to lead financially healthy lives. Financial wellness is a key factor in people’s freedom to pursue their dreams. Their signature financial counseling services help individuals stay financially healthy. Robinhood and GreenPath established their partnership in 2023. 

Operation HOPE: Operation HOPE advances economic opportunity for individuals of all ages by offering financial education, one-on-one coaching, and financial education coursework. Robinhood has been a proud partner of Operation HOPE’s since 2021.

Cara Collective: We partner with Cara Collective to advance economic mobility for communities that have been left out of the financial system. The work reflects a shared belief that stable income and long-term wealth-building go hand in hand.

Financial Education Summits

Each year, Robinhood unites educators, policymakers, and industry leaders to advance the national conversation on financial education. Our annual Financial Education Summit, most recently held in Washington, D.C., features workshops, panel discussions, and focused sessions on how financial education can best serve students, athletes, and more. Each summit involves interactive programming that creates community among advocates and educators, driving forward conversations that help participants strengthen their practices.

Spotlights Across the Globe

United Kingdom We partner with The Money Charity, the UK's leading financial wellness organization, to bring structured financial education to British consumers and help them reach 35,000+ individuals annually. Our support has enabled the development of an investing fundamental curriculum and we’ve underwritten the cost of providing these workshops across the UK.

European Union Robinhood works with Junior Achievement Europe to implement and expand financial education programming in grade schools throughout the EU. We do this in part through the “Excellence in Financial Education Award,” a new program created by Robinhood and Junior Achievement Europe that celebrates momentum where it exists and our broader support helps others build it.

Singapore In Singapore, we focus on improving the financial wellbeing of all consumers through targeted support for vulnerable families, students, and future innovators. This is accomplished through our partnerships with Community Chest and Junior Achievement Singapore, as well as through our partnership with National University of Singapore’s MBA Industry Mentorship program.

Robinhood's position

Democratizing finance for all is an unstoppable movement, and no one should be left out because they didn’t know where to start. We support access, education, and innovative tools that unlock the potential of equity markets for retail investors. We are proud to drive programs that create opportunities to build community, connect individuals to experts, and meet people where they are at any stage of their financial journey.
