History
YouthBiz was founded in Denver’s Five-Points neighborhood by a local activist and eight inner-city teens in 1992. In fifteen years the organization has served over 2,500 youth through after-school programs that leave a lasting impact not just for these individuals, but their families and the larger community. With the goal transforming disenfranchised neighborhoods one youth at a time, YouthBiz is preparing a new generation of scholars, business men and women, entrepreneurs, community leaders, and other professionals.
