His Operation HOPE, Inc.is the largest nonprofit, best-in-class provider of financial literacy and economic empowerment services in the United States for youth and adults.

The last five United States presidents have recognized Bryant's work, and he has served as an advisor to the last three sitting U.S. presidents from both political parties.
