About INTERNATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR WORLD FREEDOM

Location:

633 West Fifth Street, 26th Floor, Los Angeles, CA 90071, US

Mission Statement

At the International Foundation for World Freedom (IFWF), we believe everyone has the basic human right to fearlessly live with dignity and respect. The mission of IFWF is to protect the basic human rights of civil society and victims of war and armed conflicts. We advocate for safe resettlement of immigrants and their families and provide protection for those who seek harbor in fear of life and persecution.

Description

It is evident IFWF continues to play a vital role in the lives of low-and no-income immigrants and refugees in providing these essential resources. However, we also acknowledge that in order to achieve our mission, we must provide other services outside of our current scope. It is exceedingly difficult for immigrants in the US to gain knowledge about personal finance, especially considering barriers such as language or inability to access online resources. IFWF seeks to bridge this information gap by creating a Financial Literacy course specifically geared towards immigrants and refugees.

The course is provided in basic English and is translated to the official languages of the United Nations. The course is accessible online, and students learn upfront where they can access course materials for free. The course topics include, but are not limited to, budgeting, opening a bank account, electronic transactions, understanding credit and maintaining good credit, filing taxes, and savings. Each lesson has practical goals that students meet as they progress through the course. After the course, students understand their financial situation and are equipped to responsibly handle their personal finances.

We also develop courses in personal finance for our partner organizations and other groups.
