Meet Our 2 New NFL Investors
You’ve heard us describe ARKHAUS as a “Social Club for the World’s Disruptors”. Today, we’re proud to highlight this goes beyond our applicants and future members, and all the way up to our Ambassadors and now Investors.
Last year we met 2 NFL stars. Getting to know them a bit more, we soon learned that when they’re not disrupting offenses, they’re busy leading their local communities. We were delighted when they showed interest in working closer together, and eventually investing in ARKHAUS.
Johnathan Cyprien
Hometown: North Miami Beach, FL
Position: Strong Safety
College: Florida International U.
NFL Draft: 2013 / Round: 2 / Pick: 33
Foundation: CypSquad
Organization: Inside the Cage
Johnathan is much more than the highest drafted player ever out of FIU. A class act with an incredibly warm heart, Johnathan founded the CypSquad At Risk Youth Foundation, an organization raising funds to sponsor events and activities aiding in a brighter future for the youth of North Miami Beach. He recently launched Inside the Cage to help college student athletes thrive in the uncharted world of NIL, building their foundation for a successful future.
DJ Swearinger
Hometown: Greenwood, SC
Position: Strong Safety
College: U. of South Carolina
NFL Draft: 2013 / Round: 2 / Pick: 57
Foundation:
2 Spoonz
A heavy hitter with a gentle smile and soul, we first met DJ when we hosted the fundraiser for his 2 Spoonz Foundation. In 2021, they purchased the RL Stevens Center, which previously was a safe haven for the youth when they didn’t have many other options. It will be re-opened as the Swearinger Center and provide solutions through the arts, STEM, and after school programming to bring hope to a community in need of change.
We’re honored to have these two disruptors, who go above and beyond to serve the communities that served them, in our fold as investors. If you would like to join them, you can review the investment opportunity below.
Phase II: FHAAS
ARKHAUS will open 7 clubs in 5 years and 20+ in the next 5 years. After that, how will we continue to scale globally? This deserves an email of its own, so watch out for our “Floating Hospitality as a Solution” Service email next.
Best,
Sam Payrovi
