Five Fifths esports lounge

Press START On The Next Level Of Gaming

Our nonprofit is raising $200,000 to open an inclusive, state-of-the-art esports lounge where gamers, creators, and community connect.

The beginning

Picture This

A space designed to give every type of gamer and creator a place to thrive. The PC and console section will feature high-performance rigs and the latest consoles for competitive play, casual matches, and community tournaments. A virtual reality section will offer immersive, next-generation experiences for both fun and training. For those who want to relax or connect, the general lounge area will provide a comfortable space to watch matches, stream content, or simply hang out with friends. We’ll also have a dedicated party and event space, perfect for birthdays, tournaments, and private gatherings. And for content creators, creator booths will be available to rent by time slot, fully equipped for streaming, podcasting, or recording sessions making our lounge a true all-in-one hub for play, creation, and community.

Our Vision

Our vision is to create an esports destination that merges the energy of professional arenas with the comfort of a lounge environment but it will not just about be the games or the creation. Five Fifths will be a community hub! A place for meetups, content creation, events, and building friendships. It’s about creating the kind of environment where people walk in as strangers and leave as teammates, collaborators, or even champions.

Our Mission

The mission of Five Fifths Esports Lounge is to create a world-class space where gaming, creativity, and community come together. We are dedicated to providing an environment that blends competition and collaboration; Where players of all levels can sharpen their skills, content creators can bring their visions to life, and friends can gather to share unforgettable experiences. By combining cutting-edge technology, diverse gaming options, and welcoming spaces for events and connection, our goal is to establish Five Fifths as the premier destination for esports, entertainment, and innovation in New Jersey.

We need one of two things to happen: either one visionary donor who sees the power of funding the entire $200,000… or 200,000 people who believe in this dream enough to give just $1. Whether it’s one person or many, every contribution brings us closer to pressing START on a lounge that will change the game.

The Need

To make our Esports Lounge a reality, we must raise $200,000. This funding is critical to transform our vision from blueprint to doors open. While the passion, planning, and leadership are already in place, the resources required to build a truly world-class space demand significant investment.

A fully equipped esports lounge requires high-performance technology, a secure and modern facility, and versatile spaces for gaming, creation, and events. From PCs and consoles to VR stations, lounge seating, and private creator booths, every detail matters in ensuring that this space is not just functional, but world-class.

Without this, the vision stays on paper. With your support, the doors open and the future of gaming changes.
