The spirit of the AAAA Foundation, a 501©3 organization, begins with the legacy of LeCount R. Davis, CFP® and his wife, Jewel W. Davis. With the unwavering support of Mrs. Davis, Mr. Davis achieved a stellar and global career in the financial services industry.

Mr. Davis’ tenure as a successful financial planner and entrepreneur spans almost 50 years. In 1978, he became the first African American to earn the Certified Financial Planner^TM designation. The name, AAAA, represents the Association of African American Financial Advisors, a membership organization also founded by LeCount R. Davis, Sr. Mr. Davis represents a consummate trailblazer.

AAAA Foundation strives to bring a holistic approach to building a pipeline for future African American financial planners. The Foundation will lead initiatives which invite partners to invest in this audacious goal.

The LeCount R. and Jewel W. Davis Scholarship serves as a significant pillar in this movement. The merit-based scholarship will be awarded to talented undergraduate students enrolled full-time at a Historically Black College and University (HBCU) CFP Board Registered Program.
