Our Story

Manuel Rivera

Founder & Barber

Manny, raised by a single mom in a low-income household, lacked guidance and bounced between various endeavors. Struggling to make ends meet, traditional schooling wasn't an option. However, barbering became his saving grace, providing a steady income and a sense of purpose. After years of honing his craft, training his team, and giving back to the community, Manny founded the School of Fresh. This non-profit empowers disadvantaged youth by teaching them barbering skills in a safe and inclusive space. More than just a haircut, Manny's program equips students with the tools to thrive, fostering resilience and social connection. By teaching not just barbering but transferable skills, Manny aspires to uplift his community and empower future generations.
