5incoNetwork

We’re a Chicago-based nonprofit empowering youth ages 12–18 through DJing, music production, event planning, entrepreneurship, and mentorship—all rooted in the legacy of Chicago House music. Our mission is to give young people, especially those from underrepresented communities, hands-on skills, real-world experience, and access to mentors who’ve lived it.

From after-school programs to weekend workshops, we meet youth where they are—schools, parks, and community spaces—and help them grow into creative leaders, innovators, and business-minded artists who can transform their communities.

If you believe in investing in youth, culture, and Chicago’s creative future, consider supporting our work
