Every Dollar Countz / We Gonna Learn Today

Tampa, FL

We Gonna Learn Today is a Tampa-based, Black-owned 501(c)(3) nonprofit on a simple mission: empowering minds one student, one family, one neighborhood at a time. We do it by teaching the subjects that build strong, self-reliant communities: Black History, Civics, Financial Literacy, and Coding. Founded by retired U.S. Marine and disabled veteran Matthew D. Hale, our platform grew out of a belief that every child deserves access to knowledge that too often gets left out of the classroom. What started in 2020 has grown into a full learning ecosystem built around our Black Historical Figures workbook series and a free, interactive website anyone can use. Our programs meet learners where they are. The Digital Library and Interactive Library put lessons, activities, and stories right at your fingertips, while our Paperback Library brings the same material home in print. Younger learners sing and remember with our Sing Along Songs, and our WGLT-TV video content turns history and money lessons into something families can watch and talk about together. Our mobile app is available on the Google Play Store, with an Apple release on the way, so learning can travel wherever you go. Financial literacy sits at the heart of what we do. We believe understanding money is a form of freedom, and we teach it in plain language alongside the history and civics that help young people understand their place in the world. Coding rounds it out, opening doors to the skills that shape the future. Everything we build is designed to be welcoming, affordable, and rooted in pride. We serve students, parents, and whole neighborhoods, and we keep our core online resources free so cost is never the reason a child goes without. As a veteran-founded, Black-owned organization, we carry the values of service and community in everything we create. We are an online-first platform serving the greater Tampa Bay area and beyond. Whether you are a parent looking to start the money conversation early, a teacher searching for culturally grounded material, or a young learner curious about the figures who shaped history, there is a place for you here.
