changing generational poverty in students with

eight cents in a jar

imagine our community impact if we taught

our students...

how to build wealth and avoid the pitfalls of money management. We're creating a community that understands financial literacy . . . starting with eight cents.

8 Cents in a Jar, Inc. — an award-winning Florida 501c(3) nonprofit — creates opportunities for students in marginalized neighborhoods and/or communities of color to achieve economic mobility through financial education.

We teach students how to save money, acquire assets, and diminish the cycle of generational poverty. Starting at the age of 8, we develop students from elementary through high school and higher education. Our efforts help students avoid common pitfalls with money management and take advantage of wealth accumulation at an early age in life across generations.

Dedicated

to change.

Personal finance and economic mobility are more important than ever for students. We're dedicated to changing the lack of proper financial education for students.
