Pockets Change

Building thriving financial futures through Hip-Hop pedagogy

Our Mission…

Pockets Change’s mission is to build multigenerational financial well-being with youth, families, and educators through Hip Hop pedagogy and neuroscience to directly address systemic issues of educational inequity and the racial wealth divide. We believe arts-based, healing-centered financial education is a means for collective care and economic justice.

Hip-Hop and Finance in action:

“This curriculum is what finance education needs! My students want to see someone who looks like them, and gets the challenges they are facing, not some other tired lesson. My class lit up when I shared songs from the curriculum, they’re really excited to talk about ways to create change” - Joanna, High School Educator
