About us

Restoring America through Recovery Education.

The R.A.R.E. Foundation (Recovery Education Foundation) is a 501(c)(3) public charity, EIN 81-1048028. We serve underserved communities across the United States, and we measure ourselves by one thing: whether the people we serve leave with real skills, real certifications, and real opportunities.

How we work

Most nonprofits offer one piece of the puzzle. We bring the whole thing.

Our programs combine two things every person needs to get ahead: financial literacy and career training.

Financial literacy

Financial literacy comes from our for-profit partners. Kredit Koncepts delivers financial education and credit services. KreditKeys delivers rent reporting and financial wellness tools that help people build a credit file from the rent they already pay.

Together, they teach budgeting, credit building, credit restoration, and identity protection, the knowledge that turns a paycheck into stability.

Career training

Career training comes from KreditVerse. Its immersive AI and VR platform puts learners inside the job before they ever apply for it: virtual reality labs, workforce simulations, and apprenticeship-aligned pathways that end in industry-recognized certifications.

Who we serve

Veterans

Veterans building civilian careers after service.

Returning citizens
