In this episode of the Vet to Visionary Podcast, we welcome Chadrick Davis—a 20-year U.S. Navy veteran turned nonprofit leader and financial literacy changemaker—into the Command Suite.

Chadrick is the co-founder of the Global Children Financial Literacy Foundation, a powerful nonprofit on a mission to equip the next generation with the tools to understand what many of us had to learn the hard way: how money really works.

From launching the Wesley Learns Book Club to organizing nationwide book drives, Chadrick has been instrumental in bringing financial literacy into classrooms, communities, and conversations across the country.

His story is proof that true leadership isn’t about titles—it’s about impact.
