Pockets Change is a hybrid organization (s-corp and non-profit 501c3) working with K-12 districts, colleges, and other community organizations across the country. π Our mission is to build intergenerational financial resilience with students, families, and educators. We believe financial education is about much more than numbers, itβs a means for self-care and social justice. It all happens through Hip Hop pedagogy, which focuses on understanding self-identity in relation to the whole. Together we are working to address systemic issues of educational equity and the racial wealth divide.
