About Little Justice Leaders
Making it easy to learn about social justice.
Our mission is simple: We want to make it easy for you to teach your little ones about social justice.
We created Little Justice Leaders because we know it can be hard to talk with young children about these issues. We want to make it easier for you!
Fun, educational activities every month.
With a package that arrives each month, your learners can get excited and look forward to learning about a new social justice issue. It will also help make sure that these issues become a regular part of your day-to-day lives and conversations. The resources are selected specifically for kids in grades K-6th grade, so they include arts and crafts, projects, and other creative activities to keep them interested.
I love these boxes and the conversations we have because of them!
How It Works
When you sign up for Little Justice Leaders, every month you will receive a box of carefully selected items to guide learning about an important social justice topic. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to an organization working on that issue.
Be part of the solution.

Our Story
Hi, I’m Shelby
And that’s me with my niece and nephew, Henley and Donovan. My dream is to help them and other kids like them grow up with an awareness of social justice and acceptance of all people.
I’m working on my Ph.D. in Urban Education at UCLA, and I’m passionate about education and social justice. I’ve spent more than a decade working with kids and families to facilitate fun learning experiences.
For each box, I consult with folx who are directly impacted by that social justice issue to select the best resources for you. I try to source products from socially conscious, small businesses owned by women, people of color, and LGBTQ+ folx. And I donate a portion of the money from each box sold to a non-profit working on that issue.
Please feel free to email me at shelby@littlejusticeleaders.com with any questions, concerns, or ideas for working together.
I hope you will join our community of Little Justice Leaders!
