Our Founders
FGI was created at the University of Pennsylvania in 2018 by Dylan Ingerman, Cole Mattox, and Alex Ingerman. We felt fortunate to have learned about investing as teens, and were eager to share our experiences with others.
Financials & Reporting
Transparency matters. We provide donors with access to annual financials and impact reports so you can see exactly how your contributions help students break the inertia barrier and create long-term investing habits.
