Today more than at any other time in history, the complexities of our economic system can be daunting to even the most educated. Budget cuts and population trends cast doubts on the role of Social Security. Match this with alarming trends for low levels of saving and high levels of debt, and you have an equation that leaves millions of people with inadequate personal resources for retirement. The Evelyn Brust Financial Research and Education Foundation was created to fill this growing need for financial literacy. As former Federal Reserve chairman Alan Greenspan put it, when it comes to investing, “Education must be ongoing.”

The Evelyn Brust Foundation assists investors of all ages and backgrounds in recognizing the importance of planning for retirement and planning effectively. Together, the community and Evelyn Brust Foundation volunteers and staff work to increase financial literacy to provide for a better tomorrow.
