COMMUNITY IMPACT
CREATING OPPORTUNITIES OFFERING KNOWLEDGE, INFORMATION, AND EDUCATION (COOKIE)

Creating Opportunities Offering Knowledge, Information, and Education (COOKIE) is the community impact initiative of ThriveWell Innovations, created to help individuals and families build stronger, more stable, and financially empowered lives.
COOKIE is the community impact nonprofit of ThriveWell Innovations. COOKIE operates as a separate nonprofit organization with its own governance, financial accounts, programs, and charitable mission.
Affectionately named in honor of the founder's father, whose nickname was Cookie, COOKIE carries forward a commitment to education, opportunity, and community connection.
Our work focuses on financial wellness, housing education, and practical community resources that help people make informed decisions and build greater stability for themselves and their families.
As a member of the FDIC Money Smart Alliance, ThriveWell Innovations uses the FDIC Money Smart curriculum to provide accessible financial education through workshops, group programs, and individualized financial education.
COOKIE also provides quarterly landlord and tenant education seminars, helping community members better understand housing responsibilities, resources, and pathways toward housing stability.
Through education, partnerships, and community-centered programming, COOKIE works to remove barriers and create opportunities for individuals and families to thrive.

At COOKIE, we believe that knowledge creates opportunity—and opportunity creates the foundation for thriving communities.
