At Refounders, our Why begins with a deep commitment to empower future entrepreneurs and leaders who will carry forward our vision of an empowered, happy, and self-sustaining society for centuries to come. True change starts with the next generation—the young people who will one day shape our world. But today, they face unprecedented challenges designed to suppress their potential.

Modern society does not equip young people with the tools to live empowered lives. In fact, many systems and institutions actively work against it. Education systems have barely evolved in over 40 years. Technology and social media, while revolutionary, are increasingly designed to addict, especially targeting the younger minds. The family unit is under attack. Health is in crisis, with obesity and mental health issues escalating rapidly. Meanwhile, our governments and leadership are failing to support independent thinking, autonomy, financial independence, homeownership, and the very values that build strong, resilient cultures and societies.

The facts are staggering:

Over 50% of marriages end in divorce, weakening family stability.

Testosterone levels in men are at an all-time low.

90% of millennials carry debt, with student loans weighing them down.

50% of teens suffer from phone addiction.

More 40% of adults and 20% of children in America are obese.

America’s youth once ranked among the world’s most educated and empowered. Today, we're slipping. College tuition has skyrocketed, homeownership feels unreachable, and outdated education systems fail to prepare young people for a world where a college degree is no longer the sole ticket to success. The next generation deserves better, and if we don’t act now, we risk allowing a future controlled by those who prioritize profit and power over people’s wellbeing.

The Refounders Movement movement is our answer. Refounders exists to disrupt the status quo, to provide mentorship, and to give young people the tools they need to build fulfilling, autonomous lives. If we properly lead, mentor, and impact the upcoming generations, they will change the world—not only for themselves but for everyone who follows.

Our Why is clear: We are here to refound the leadership, education, quality of life for the next generations. We are here to serve and elevate Gen Z, Gen Alpha, and beyond—because if we don’t do it, who will?
