We Create Opportunities
WHO WE ARE
5C’s Development Program is a minority owned non-profit organization located in Richmond, Virginia. The school was established to offer vocational training programs to students in the Metro Richmond area. We offer training courses to individuals who have a strong desire to follow a path within the building trade industry.
HISTORY
The idea for the 5C’s Development Program was born in February 2010 when the parents of the 5C’s Founder, John Brown III (Mr. Brown), Shirley and John Brown, Sr. wanted to give back to the community in memory Mr. Brown’s son, Jomond Alonzo Lightfoot (Jomond). Jomond was murdered on April 20, 2009, at the young age of 24. Jomond’s tragic death inspired the Brown family to help others and support the community by offering vocational training to at-risk youth and adults who have a strong desire to change their lives.
