Give the Gift of Change.
“When you give, you’re not donating to a cause — you’re investing in people. Families eat. Records are cleared. Futures are rewritten. That’s the power of your support.” - Todd Belcore Cofounder of Social Change
Your donation removes barriers, feeds families, changes laws, and inspires communities worldwide.
Since 2012, Social Change has helped over 100,000 families. Through our:
Free legal clinics that start the process to expunge or seal criminal records,
Free farmers’ markets: taken place at our englewood garden.
Policy advocacy: we have passed more than 30 life-changing laws.
ChangeFest: our annual international film festival that uses art and storytelling to build awareness and drive justice.
Your donation powers both urgent needs today and long-term solutions that last for generations.
