A Message from the CEO

Jheri Holbert

Jheri Holbert
FOUNDER & CEO

“I started Kids4Equity in 2020 after George Floyd’s murder, aiming to bring something positive to one of the most emotionally traumatic periods in recent American history. As an educator and the daughter of an activist, I have personally seen firsthand how trauma can deeply affect children. Kids4Equity was founded to help children better navigate and thrive in this complex, sometimes scary world.

Bringing this vision to life has enabled me to collaborate with an incredible, passionate, and talented team. Together, we are blending education, psychology, technology, and entertainment to create something truly unique for our children. We strive to equip them with essential life skills  - from managing emotions and showing kindness to making smart choices. Everyday, we work to develop resources and tools aimed at helping them thrive, no matter what life throws their way.

I am humbled and appreciative that you have chosen to join us on this journey. Because of you, we can reach children from all places and spaces, guiding them toward a future where they feel safe, valued, and understood.  A world where every child knows that they are never alone in their feelings.”
