The Archwood at Eastlake Mission

The Archwood at Eastlake will function as a central impact hub, advancing ACRES' mission by providing essential resources and creating opportunities within a unified, accessible location. ENTERTAINMENT ARTS EDUCATION Dedicated spaces for classes, workshops, coworking, and other resources. Vital opportunities in driving our mission of achieving impactful, long-term growth. From dance and martial arts to visual media and theater, The Archwood will ensure there is room for expression & growth that is vital for community. Enough space to host large gatherings including conferences, performances and celebrations. The possibilities are endless. MAKING A LASTING IMPACT AT A GLANCE ACRES is partnering with key organizations that provide essential products and services designed to sustain and accelerate the growth of emerging enterprises. These resources span critical areas from business development to funding opportunities and more. This collaborative effort aims to dismantle a major barrier faced by entrepreneurs from underserved communities—the challenge of accessing knowledgeable, relatable support. Our comprehensive support system will equip the current generation of entrepreneurs with the stability and resources needed to pursue economic independence and build generational wealth. This infrastructure will, in turn, inspire and empower future generations to chase their dreams with the confidence that they have a solid foundation for success. BUSINESS INCUBATOR The ACRES IMPACT HUB will provide businesses with a collaborative environment to refine and develop viable concepts prior to large-scale launch. Our offerings will include structured cohorts, accelerator programs, workshops, guest speaker sessions, networking opportunities, funding pathways, and more. These resources are designed to equip our most talented and driven entrepreneurs with the tools and insights essential for achieving economic independence through business ownership.

This ambitious initiative to drive meaningful change and close the economic wealth gap is essential to ensuring long-term economic viability. Since 2016, ACRES has actively engaged with the community, fostering a culture that prioritizes support for Black-owned businesses and a deep understanding of the profound impact of doing so. Through these dedicated efforts, we have seen the powerful impact we are capable of achieving in Arizona. To realize this vision to its fullest potential, we need your support. We are launching our fundraising campaign to secure the resources necessary to make this project a success. Currently underway, the project is projected to be completed between January and February 2025. To achieve full operational capacity, we will need to hire staff, complete design elements, and fully equip and furnish the spaces. We are also seeking in-kind donations for specific equipment and furnishings that have been identified, as well as additional resources as the project progresses. Your tax-deductible contributions are vital and deeply appreciated. Please find the donation link below. If you are interested in joining us in this fundraising effort, we would be thrilled to collaborate with you on this transformative project. Together, we can create lasting change, elevate and amplify the brilliance within our community, and positively impact future generations. THANK YOU, TEAM ARCHWOOD WHAT’S NEXT WHAT’S NEXT
