“Working with NEFE has been such a wonderful experience. Our team has felt supported from day 1 and through our entire process. We have appreciated the opportunity to work with NEFE to identify ways to improve our project methodology, engage with content experts, and disseminate our results. The support of NEFE has allowed us to complete a project that wouldn’t have been able to be completed without the financial support as well as the continued engagement with NEFE staff.”
-Melissa Wilmarth, PhD, Assistant Professor at University of Alabama
As a private operating foundation, we do not provide grants to meet our qualified annual disbursement requirements. We offer grant opportunities because we believe that the policies and programs that affect people's lives should be supported by robust evidence. In NEFE’s early days, our grantmaking focused on content development. Now, we fund research that emphasizes—and elevates—rigor within the field of financial well-being.
