Five Back launched in July 2017 in South Phoenix, initially focused on raising funds for minority businesses to combat stereotypes and level the entrepreneurial playing field through education, funding, and resources. Our funding came from our weekend-only resale shop, Five Back Thrifty Boutique, and we embraced the hashtag #GetThrifted, which became a mantra for turning rags into riches. Over the years, we've partnered with many nonprofits to achieve our goals. In November 2021, we obtained 501(c)(3) status.
Our mission is to transform disadvantaged and minority urban areas into thriving communities through entrepreneurship, education, employment, financial literacy, and business development. By fostering a network of self-sufficient entrepreneurs, we provide the essential tools needed to start, grow, and sustain businesses. We recognize that in urban communities, opportunities are often limited by experience and exposure. Therefore, we aim to provide people, including youth, with access to trades, college, and entrepreneurship, recognizing that each plays a vital role in building a prosperous community.
Your support and contributions will enable us to meet our goals and improve conditions. Your generous donation will fund our mission.
We love our community, so feel free to visit during normal business hours.
