Discovery 664 Academy
Discovery 664 Academy is an educational platform created by the Endow America Network Foundation, a national community foundation 501(c)(3) raising awareness of tax-advantaged solutions that enable individuals and the charities they support to establish long-term financial stability and sustainability. The organization is dedicated to making IRC Section 664 and the Theory of Social Secharity™ as well known and understood as other widely used tax strategies, such as 401(k) and 529 plans.
Through Discovery 664 Academy, the foundation delivers structured, self-paced online learning — including the 664 Ambassador Course and its advanced program, the Endowment Engineer Course — that equips participants with actionable knowledge, skills, and credentials to become leaders in strategic philanthropy. Unlike traditional financial education that focuses solely on asset accumulation, Discovery 664 Academy teaches how to protect wealth, grow it strategically, minimize tax burdens, and build enduring endowments that benefit both families and the causes they care about.
