Ep. 59 From Foster Care To Transforming The Future For Orphans with L.R. Fox
Episode 59
Published 4 months, 2 weeks ago
Description
What if philanthropy focused not only on solving problems, but on unlocking the extraordinary potential hidden inside the world’s most vulnerable communities? In this episode of Money to Give, Rick Peck sits down with L.R. Fox to explore how entrepreneurial thinking, lived experience, and compassion can come together to create transformational change. Drawing from his own experience growing up in foster care, Fox shares how his family office and foundation identify large-scale global challenges — and either invest in existing solutions or build entirely new organizations when critical gaps exist.
L.R. Fox discusses innovative work ranging from expanding contraceptive access to launching Oasis Academy, a boarding school and support network designed to help orphaned and vulnerable children reach their highest potential. By partnering with nonprofits around the world, Oasis Academy identifies exceptionally talented youth and provides them with education, mentorship, leadership exposure, and long-term support designed to help them thrive far beyond survival. This episode offers a powerful and deeply human conversation about resilience, opportunity, and how philanthropy can be intentionally designed to create generational transformation instead of temporary relief.
