Flywire Charitable Foundation

The Flywire Charitable Foundation is committed to improving access to quality education and healthcare. By doing so, we strive to create a more inclusive, just and equitable society, where every individual can explore new cultures and experiences across borders, regardless of one’s background.

Our Vision

A future where individuals and communities all over the world have equal access to the resources needed to improve their outcomes, regardless of one’s race, gender, ethnicity, religion or sexual orientation.

This starts with closing the affordability gap for individuals seeking to access high quality healthcare, education and other life experiences, no matter where they are in the world.

Our Pillars

Our mission and vision stand on three pillars:

Equality

Creating an inclusive and just society hinges on the notion that we’re all equals, regardless of our race, gender, ethnicity, religion, or sexual orientation. We commit to supporting initiatives that reduce racial and other societal disparities.

Access

Action starts with access and we commit to ensuring minority populations have access to the same educational, healthcare and cultural opportunities that majority populations do.

Affordability

Across the world, the cost of education and healthcare exceed individuals’ ability to pay. We commit to finding solutions that reduce this affordability gap.

Celebrating our scholars & evolving our Foundation

Since its inception in 2020, the Flywire Charitable Foundation's academic scholarship program has helped international college students from over 15 countries pursue their academic dreams by easing the financial burden of attaining higher education. Thousands of students applied, and we proudly granted hundreds of thousands of dollars for the next generation of leaders to put toward tuition and other education-related expenses.

The impact of our scholarship program has surpassed our wildest expectations, empowering students to overcome financial barriers and realize their full potential. While we are immensely proud of the impact this program has made, we have made the difficult decision to discontinue our scholarship program in 2024 as we continue to evolve as both a company and a Foundation. While we bid farewell to this program with a heavy heart, we do so knowing that it has left an indelible mark on the lives of those we have had the privilege to support.

We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to the students who have applied to our scholarship program, and to the winners who have demonstrated exceptional talent, dedication, and leadership across the academic disciplines of global health, social justice, global citizenship, and sustainability. Your achievements continue to inspire us, and we are honored to have played a role in supporting your educational journey.

While our scholarship program may come to a close, our commitment to improving equality, access, and affordability for underrepresented communities remains unwavering. Stay tuned for updates on our future initiatives!
