Empowering children to make positive life choices since 2000.
Since our first summer of camp in 2000, Fiver has grown into an award-winning youth development organization serving nearly 500 youth (ages 8–18) from more than 350 families, along with 175+ alumni each year. Through our comprehensive 10-year commitment, we provide year-round programming, summer camp, and family support—at no cost to families.
Children don’t just attend Fiver.
They become Fivers.
Through character-building summer and year-round out-of-school time programs, Fiver makes a long-term commitment to our participants, providing the platform, and underlying infrastructure, so that young people can empower themselves and their communities.
1,750+ youth served since 2000.
Help us expand our reach & empower more lives.
A Decade of Growth, A Legacy of Impact
A culture of acceptance and affirmation.
