Our aim is to broaden the scope of our contributions as we grow.
Let's create CHANGE together!
 
Since opening our doors in 2017, 
{pocket}CHANGE has supported the following organizations:







coldest night of the year st. catharines ontario

Every February brings around one of my yearly favourites. Every year, I walk with community for the Coldest Night of the Year. 
All the money raised locally stays local to support Start Me Up Niagara.
