Through a one-of-a-kind ten-year commitment, Fiver provides experiences that challenge and relationships that nurture so youth from systematically under-resourced communities in New York can create their own positive futures.

OUR MISSION

Empowering children to make positive life choices since 2000.

For more than 25 years, 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 a comprehensive 10-year commitment, we provide year-round programs, summer camp, and family support—at no cost to families—so New York youth can build positive futures.

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.

Fiver has established an immersive culture with a common language, norms, artifacts, and practices that become embedded in the hearts of children, staff and everyone who becomes involved.
